About Tony

For nearly 20 years, Tony has made running his focal point in life. Competing in track and field as youth athlete, chasing US Olympic Trials dreams in the marathon, and exploring the trails through many country sides, has provided Tony with a rich experience of what the lifestyle of a runner can be. Furthermore, running has connected Tony with athletes of all ability levels with whom he has mutually shared the joys of the sport.

In his coaching, Tony shares these experiences as he helps you integrate running into your lifestyle.

My Coaching Philosophy

The joy of the sport and consistency of training. Nothing leads to more success in this sport than being excited to live the running lifestyle and get out there day in and day out.

Crushing a singular workout, running a 100-mile week, or eating a healthy meal, are all great individual events, but doing it once will not make you a great athlete. My role as a coach is to help you develop your excitement and love for the sport, while providing structured training that allows you to consistently train over the months and years it requires to reach your ultimate goals and dreams.

Interview
