10+ years

As I mentioned, I've been a runner for a long time and coaching for a couple of decades. I've coached everyone from middle schoolers through elite athletes. I am a husband and father in the Metro Detroit area of Michigan. I've competed at all levels and now find joy in helping others reach their goals. Personally, I have finished in the top 15 of the Chicago, Boston, and New York City Marathons with a PR of 2:14:38 in the marathon and 1:03:56 in the half marathon.

One of my achievements is writing the Hansons Marathon Method book series. I was also a product of the system for 15 years as a professional with the Hansons Brooks Distance Project. I believe whole heartedly in the system, but have also added my own tweaks to fit into the lives of busy adult athletes who are looking to perform at a high level.
