About Brian Lock
I believe in the power of setting BIG GOALS for yourself and a persistent positive attitude. In 2017 I set out to break the world record for the fastest marathon while dribbling a soccer ball. Despite some setbacks in training I set this record in a time of 3:29:03 and raised a lot of money for a good cause in the process. You can learn more about it at my website: www.roadrunnercoaching.com!
Description
My coaching philosophy starts with YOU! I don’t have plans or schedules set until I know about your specific background and training goals. From there, I believe in: - Steady, logical progressions in workouts from where you are now to where you want to be – NOT a cookie cutter training plan that’s been made for the general public. -Athlete-centered, not system-centered, coaching. Runners are not robots, so I don’t coach you like one! -Taking an athlete to the edge but not over it! You can’t race if you don’t make it to the start line healthy. I want to find your training threshold and train right up against it to increase the adaptations you get. As an RRCA certified coach, I love to research training methods and what successful athletes have done (seriously – I can’t stop reading!). I do this so all you have to do is RUN! It takes the guesswork out of training. Admittedly, I’m not an Olympian or cross country coach at a big university. I will NOT be the most talented coach and am okay with that. MY goal is to be the most passionate, committed, and detail-oriented coach that you will ever find! Take a look at my options below. I would be humbled to be a part of your journey to get better. If you have an additional need, PLEASE just reach out to me on the CONTACT page!
