Private Running Coaching, One-on-One With an Expert Coach
Direct Access to Your Coach, Every Step of the Way
Private coaching on V.O2 means a real coach reviewing your workouts, adjusting your plan as your training unfolds, and answering questions as they come up - not a static document you follow on your own. Training paces come from the VDOT methodology, the individualized training-pace system from two-time Olympic medalist and exercise scientist Dr. Jack Daniels, then get refined as your fitness and life change week to week. It's the closest thing to having a coach in your pocket: race-week strategy, adjustments around setbacks and niggles, and pacing feedback when you need it.
For Runners Who Want Accountability and Expertise
Whether you're returning from a layoff, chasing a specific qualifying time, or simply want expert eyes on your training, private coaching gives you a dedicated relationship with a coach who knows your history.
Find Your Private Coach
Compare coaches by specialty, pricing, and reviews from athletes they've actually coached, then message one directly to get started.
FAQ
A training plan is a structured program you follow independently; private coaching adds an ongoing relationship where the coach reviews your workouts and adjusts your VDOT paces as you go, rather than handing you a fixed schedule up front.
Dr. Jack Daniels: a two-time Olympic medalist and exercise scientist named "The World's Best Running Coach" by Runner's World. Private coaches refine his individualized pacing research around you week to week.
V.O2 Certified coaches have passed an 80-question exam authored by Dr. Jack Daniels, scoring 80% or higher. It's optional and sits alongside USATF and RRCA as one of three credentials shown on profiles.
First, look for coaches with experience in your target distance, relevant specialities, and positive reviews. Or, search for coaches by location, product type, and price.
