I’m Quint van Beek, a Chicago-based running coach and competitive marathon runner originally from the Netherlands. After improving my own marathon time from 3:07 to 2:43, I know what consistent, intelligent training can achieve. I help runners train with purpose, build lasting fitness, and pursue ambitious goals without allowing running to take over their lives. Whether you’re preparing for your first race, chasing a personal best, or trying to qualify for Boston, your training will be tailored to your experience, schedule, and goals.
