If you're looking for a one-time training plan for a specific race, start with the Race Plan. If you want ongoing support, accountability, and a plan that evolves with you, Full Coaching is the move. If you're local and want the most hands-on experience — including in-person sessions — Full Coaching + is for you. Still not sure? Reach out and we'll figure it out together.

You need a GPS watch to track your runs — that's the one non-negotiable. Beyond that, I'll work with whatever you already have.

Every plan is built specifically for you — your current fitness, your goal race, and your schedule. I don't hand out cookie-cutter plans. You'll get a weekly structure with specific workouts, paces, and mileage that builds toward your goal. Plans are adjusted as we go based on how your training is progressing.

Both. I coach athletes remotely from anywhere, and I offer in-person sessions for local athletes in the Boston area through the Full Coaching + plan. If you're not local, remote coaching works just as well — most of my check-ins and feedback happen through calls and email anyway.

ChatGPT hasn't run a marathon. Runna can build a decent program — but neither can watch you fall apart at mile 18 and know exactly why. I've cut 1 hour and 34 minutes from my full marathon time by figuring out what works and what doesn’t work firsthand. When something isn't working, I don't run an algorithm — I pick up the phone. No app replaces a coach who's been where you're trying to go.

Absolutely. I coach runners of all levels — from first-timers toeing their very first start line to competitive age-groupers chasing big PRs. What matters isn't where you are right now. It's where you want to go and your willingness to do the work to get there.
-
I specialize in the half and full marathons but also love the 5k and 10k. Whether you're running your first 5K or trying to BQ, I've been there and I know what it takes.
-
Hard enough to make you better, not so hard that it breaks you. That's the line between progress and injury — and I've been on both sides of it. Injury prevention is the number one priority, crushing PRs is the second.
