About Sam
I am a student-athlete with straight A's and I balance my athletic career with my position as brass captain in my high school band, so I know what it feels like to be busy or not have time for workouts. Over the years, I have honed the best way to balance these things in life and I know that I can teach these ways to everyday people so they can do the things they love while getting fitter and faster. In addition, to further qualify myself as a worthy coach, my 5k PR is a 16:12, my 10k PR is a 35:21, my half marathon PR is a 1:20:53, and my marathon PR is a 2:56:59, the last PR being done in December of 2025 as my first marathon.

I teach 2 types of methods based on the athlete. I can teach the MAF (Maximum Aerobic Function) method for runners who want to be fast at a sustainable rate with a healthy, strong heart. The second method I teach is what I have learned from my experience as a cross country athlete with workouts 1-3 times per week. I believe I am suited to coach runners as I coached a high school soccer player to run a half marathon in under 2 hours in less than 3 weeks. I provide my coaching to any runner who wants to improve in their fitness.

I met Sam at our High School, and we became good friends throughout the year. He convinced me to join a running club where the end goal was to complete a half marathon and I wouldn’t have been able to do it without him. He helped me to make a training plan and helped pace me on the day of the half marathon. He is a great teacher who can meet you at whatever level you’re at and help you improve and reach your goals.
