Philosophy
I am a big proponent of operating on two week cycles that include speed development, threshold work, tempo work, race specific prep, and interval sessions. I believe you need to work on all systems throughout the season to prepare for your key races. The emphasis on each system varies for the main workout of each two week cycle.
Coaching Experience
18 years as a high school track and field and cross country coach. I have also coached adults in the 5k – marathon with great success.
