Description
Christopher Azar, a lifelong runner and coach that has spent the last decade in the Bay Area running, photographing races and coaching. Chris is a friend of the VDOT family since 2018 and designer of the VDOT mobile app. He started racing at 13 years old on the St. Philomena School cross-country team in Portsmouth, RI. His first experience coaching was two years as the captain of his high school cross country team -- and has never looked back. More recently he run 5 marathons, run an additional ultra marathon and has qualified for Boston Marathon twice.
As a member of the Bay Area’s vibrant running community, I also contribute my time as a volunteer photographer at some of the country’s most picturesque races. I’m inspired by gritty runners of all ages, the diverse running community, the camaraderie of the sport and the dramatic landscapes of California.
Please contact me for running advice, coaching, or photography.
