Private 1:1 XC Coaching
Private 1:1 group sessions are perfect for athletes who want highly specialized training and the highest degree of personalization. We only have a few openings due to the number of current clients. Contact us for available time slots and cost.
Why train with us?
You can run all the miles you want on the trail or around the block, but wouldn’t you rather train smart? There is more to running faster than simply running more. Yes, running volume is a part of it, but “training” specifically for the 2-mile or 5k distance will make you faster when you follow our proven training approach.
Our coaching starts with understanding each athlete’s goals and abilities. During our first session, we evaluate each runner’s form, endurance and strength. We dig into any injury history and/or trouble spots and then customized our program that builds each athlete up and prepares them for their season based on their current ability.
We use a wide range of workouts from core / strength training to hill training, speed / tempo sessions, surface adaptation training, form/technique drills and more focusing each workout on a specific training outcome.
Since runners come to us at all different ability levels we want to make sure each runner gets what they need to get to the next level in their running.
We use a mix of training that involves endurance, speed, strength, stamina, strategy, emphasizing proper form, technique, fueling, hydration, mental toughness, and more.

Where and when is training?
Training is held in Lewis Center at one of the local tracks in Lewis Center.
For 1:1 sessions, you sign up for a dedicated day/time. Small group Cross Country sessions are held weekly every Saturday from May 31st to July 26th, 2025 at 10:30AM.
How often is training conducted?
We meet once per week in person for approximately one hour. That includes warm up drills, form drills (part of warm-up) and a scheduled workout based on the needs of your athlete and where they are in training.
During the rest of the week, athletes will receive workout instructions that may involve running at specific distance, intensity level (easy-moderate), form drills, and/or strength training.
Each athlete (and their parents) can communicate with us throughout the week as needed through email, text, or via phone/Zoom.
Athlete Cancellation / Makeup Policy
For 1:1 athletes, we will do our best to accomodate reschedules as long as they are not excessive, and rescheduled in advance. For group sessions, the only makeup sessions are for when we reschedule the whole group due to weather.
Ohio weather can sometimes impact training. Be sure to check out our weather cancellation policy.
When it comes to weather, our #1 priority is to avoid dangerous weather conditions to ensure your athlete’s safety. Therefore, you never pay for sessions cancelled due to severe or extreme weather. We do our best to make up the session, or refund any unused sessions due to weather.
All sessions are held in Lewis Center within a short drive of Dublin, Hilliard, Powell, Worthington, Westerville, Sunbury, Delaware, New Albany, Gahanna, Upper Arlington and Columbus!
