Cross Country & Running Coaching

Thank you for your interest in Cross Country and Running Coaching! I look forward to working with you to motivate and encourage your children. Not only will they improve their skills and fitness, I hope they will develop a lifelong enjoyment for running too!

The purpose of this program is to increase physical literacy, improve motor skills, develop pacing strategies, learn how to breathe, become stronger, and run for much longer. Each session will be neatly packaged to ensure training is easy for anyone to understand.

If you are looking for a program that will have your child running laps for an hour so they go home exhausted, this may not be the right choice. Instead, participants will receive coaching suitable for their age and abilities to achieve Long-Term Athlete Development.
