​Coaching Guiding Principles:

• Running is a fun, healthy sport for all ages and abilities
• What is learned in running can be applied to life such as hard work, team building, and setting goals
• Hard work will always beats Pure Talent
• Self-discipline is much better than Imposed Discipline  
• Running can open doors of opportunities such as scholarships
• Positive reinforcement and motivation leads to bringing out greatness in others and oneself
• All can't win the race but all will benefit from the journey preparing for the race!

Coaching Methodology:

• Age appropriate mileage volume with gradual increases as runners mature in age and experience
• Periodic training cycles; both micro and macro cycles to fully develop young runners to their potential
• Strong Base building without neglecting all 6 (yes 6) running systems
• Hills Hills Hills 
• Aerobic Threshold is key to endurance runners
• Proper running form needs to be developed at an early age
• Nutrition is a hidden gem that can help runners go to another level
• ​Sports Psychology must be part of any training program
