Run Faster This Spring With Our
Offseason Track and Speed Training Sessions
WINTER TRACK COACHING
MS/HS Track – Winter Training Sessions are now enrolling
Winter is where champions are built. The months before the first meet set the foundation for seasonal success. Spring track is short. Those who do not train in the offseason, spend much of their season playing catch up to those who do. We are now enrolling for our small group coaching to help you build strength, speed, endurance, sharpen technique, and step into the season prepared to have your best year yet.
Winter Session Programs
November 2025 – February 2026 – Limited spots due to small group sizes – Enroll today to guarantee your spot.

The Run For Performance Difference
Coaching is more than a “weekend certification” for us. Founded in 2011, our coaches are certified through certifying agencies and organizations like NASM (National Academy of Sports Medicine), Precision Nutrition, National Strength and Conditioning Association, USA Track and Field, the Road Runners Club of America (RRCA), and more.
Each coach stays up to date by frequently attending advanced training, clinics, and continuing education training to ensure they are always up to date with the latest principles in sports performance.
All coaches are First Aid/CPR/AED certified and undergo nationwide criminal background checks and SafeSport certification.
Individual, evidence-based training
We strongly believe that our athlete’s success comes from our 14+ years of experience that follows periodized, evidence-based training methodologies. Each athlete is unique, so our training must be customized to each person to see the best results.
For 1:1 training, we customize everything 100% based on each athlete’s situation and goals. This allows us to make small adjustments and modifications based on real data and athlete feedback. We don’t just give you a bunch of workouts and tell you to follow our plan.
For small group training we keep group sizes small so each athlete receives the help they need. We get to know each athlete and their goals.
We are invested in each athlete and make the time to prepare for your workouts with us far before you come to our session, so each session is targeted for what needs to get done that day to get the best training adaptation.
Unlike many programs, we do not use generic, canned training plans and spreadsheets.
Training without focus and planning is exercise. It will make you healthy. But likely, it only leads to mediocre results.
We build athletes up, not tear them down
Each coach is non-judgmental, caring, supportive, and motivating. Every athlete has down days and weeks. Not every workout will be perfect.
Instead of yelling, we use positive reinforcement techniques that allow our athletes to build a fire and drive that comes from within.
We work to get the best out of every workout so that progress is made.
And based on schedule / availability, we even try to come watch you compete when we can! We are vested in your success and we love to see our athletes perform in competition!
We are a USA Track and Field member club
USA Track & Field is the governing body of the sports of track & field, long distance running, and race walking in the United States.
Its mission is to “foster sustained competitive excellence, interest, and participation in the sports of track & field, long distance running, and race walking.”
As a USATF member club, we are committed to help move their mission forward.
We are not a “running club”. We support Central Ohio adults and athletes who want to develop in the sport of Track and Field and/or long distance running regardless of their level of participation and competitiveness.
We support our community and schools where we live and work
Run For Performance financially supports many local schools’ athletic boosters. We believe in the power of sport and athletics and want to make sure everyone, regardless of ability, race, gender, or background, has access to the benefits that sport has to offer.
