Marathon Private Coaching From Coaches in the United States

Distance, Format, and Location - All Matched

This is the most specific way to find a coach on V.O2: Marathon expertise, delivered as Private Coaching, from a coach based in the United States. Each listing shows scope, communication, and pricing up front, and training runs on individualized VDOT paces developed by two-time Olympic medalist and exercise scientist Dr. Jack Daniels. A coach who already focuses on Marathon training and works with US athletes brings both the workout structure and the local context - race calendars, qualifying standards, typical conditions - to your Private Coaching.

Decide With Real Information

Reviews come exclusively from athletes who purchased coaching, profiles are reviewed before listing, and you can message any coach before committing.

FAQ

Local context: US race calendars, qualifying standards, and training conditions. Combined with the Private Coaching format and individualized VDOT paces, you get coaching aligned with the events you'll actually enter.

Each listing shows scope, communication, and price, and each profile carries reviews written only by verified clients. Shortlist two or three coaches, then message them with your goal to see who fits best.

Dr. Jack Daniels, the exercise scientist and two-time Olympic medalist Runner's World named "The World's Best Running Coach." His research sets the paces behind every Marathon Private Coaching listing on the marketplace.

USATF (USA Track & Field) and RRCA (Road Runners Club of America) both run tiered coaching-education programs covering training science and coaching practice - separate from V.O2 Certified, which is V.O2's own credential built on Dr. Jack Daniels' methodology. Coaches can hold any combination of the three, and all are optional.

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. Once you’ve narrowed your search, read the coaching bios to ensure the coach is the right fit for you. You can also message coaches directly to ask about their approach and whether they're a good fit for your goals.
