Coaching

Runner X Academy offers personalized running coaching services tailored to athletes of all levels, from high school to masters, recreational to elite. Our coaching is designed to help you achieve your running goals, whether it's running your first 5K, 10K, Half Marathon, Marathon or improving your personal best.

We are based out of Northern Virginia but train runners from around the world.  Distance isn't a problem - especially if you're trained by us. 

Each week you will receive a training program based on how you are responding to training. Based on your individual strengths and weaknesses and if you are training for Track or Marathon - or anywhere in between - we may focus on activation, flexibility, foam rolling, plyometrics, sprint drills,  or strength training, in addition to more traditional aerobic building, hills, threshold, and VO2 sessions. Our philosophy is to go after your weaknesses and make them strengths!

 As in all good relationships, communication is key. Running X academy coaching provides regular feedback on how training is going and any areas to work on. 

Any athlete knows the commitment required to achieve a goal like running a Marathon. At Runner X academy we buy into that commitment and are here for you. We are here to help all ages and abilities achieve their running-based goals.

All programs can be accessed using Final Surge, once you sign. This allow you to see what's coming up from any device. 

All our athletes are either on Garmin or Strava, which allows easy access to training data. By combining GPS, heart rate, and subjective self-evaluation data we are able to assess how you are responding to training and customize your program to suit your individual needs.
