Run Coaching

Train Smarter. Run Stronger. Race Better.

Running goals are personal, and your training should be too.

Apex Run Coaching provides personalized training for runners looking to improve their performance, train for a specific race, or simply become more consistent and confident runners.

As a Doctor of Physical Therapy, marathoner, ultramarathoner, and RRCA-certified running coach, Alex combines running performance, injury prevention, and individualized training to help you get the most out of your running while staying healthy.

What Run Coaching Includes

Personalized Training Plan: A training plan built around your current fitness, experience, goals, schedule, and upcoming races.

Weekly Training Guidance: Ongoing adjustments based on how you're responding to training, including mileage, intensity, recovery, and workout progression.

Race-Specific Training: Training designed around your specific goal, whether you're preparing for a:

  • 5K

  • 10K

  • Half marathon

  • Marathon

  • Ultramarathon

Pacing & Race Strategy: Develop a realistic race strategy based on your current fitness, course, goals, and experience.

Strength & Injury Prevention: Running-specific strength and mobility recommendations designed to help you handle training demands and reduce your risk of setbacks.

Training & Recovery Guidance: Help with balancing mileage, intensity, long runs, recovery, and other factors that influence your ability to train consistently.

Ongoing Coaching & Accountability: Regular communication and adjustments to keep you on track, address problems as they arise, and make sure your training continues to evolve.

More Than Just a Training Plan: You don't need another generic 12-week running program.

You need a plan that considers you.

Your training will be adjusted based on your performance, schedule, recovery, goals, and how your body is responding. If something starts to hurt, we can address it early rather than simply pushing through it.

And if you're dealing with an injury that requires more than a training adjustment, your physical therapy and running coaching can work together under the same roof.

Who Is Run Coaching For?

Run coaching is a good fit for runners who:

  • Are training for a specific race

  • Want to improve their race times

  • Are returning to running after an injury

  • Struggle with consistency or training structure

  • Want help managing higher mileage

  • Are transitioning to longer distances

  • Want guidance from someone who understands both running and injury rehabilitation

Whether you're chasing a PR, preparing for your first marathon, or taking on an ultramarathon, your training should have a purpose.
