Training Plan Offers From US-Based Running Coaches

Why Work With a Coach Based in the United States

A US-based coach pairs the Training Plan format with local knowledge: American race calendars, qualifying standards, and training conditions across regions. Every offer is grounded in the VDOT methodology, the individualized training-pace system developed by two-time Olympic medalist and exercise scientist Dr. Jack Daniels. Each Training Plan listing spells out what's included and what it costs before you commit, and every profile was reviewed before going live on the marketplace.

Compare With Confidence

Reviews can only be written by athletes who purchased from the coach, so ratings reflect real coaching relationships. Filter by distance, specialty, or price to shorten the list, and message a coach directly with any questions.

Start Your Training Plan

Pick the US-based coach whose experience matches your goal and get started this week.

FAQ

Yes. Coaching runs remotely through messaging and in-app feedback, so time zones rarely matter day to day - and if scheduling matters to you, message the coach before buying to confirm how they communicate.

Profiles are reviewed before going live, and many US coaches hold USATF or RRCA certifications or are V.O2 Certified. Each profile lists credentials, and you can filter by certification.

It's an 80-question exam authored by Dr. Jack Daniels, drawn from his book Daniels' Running Formula, and coaches need to score 80% or higher to pass. It's optional and sits alongside USATF and RRCA as one of three credentials you can filter by.

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.

All coaches on this page offer Training Plans. Check each coach's profile to see pricing, duration, and what's included in their coaching packages.

Online coaches on V.O2 provide personalized training plans, feedback via messaging, phone calls and/or in-app commenting, and progress tracking without requiring in-person meetings. Most adjust your plan based on your weekly feedback and performance.

Most coaches on the V.O2 Marketplace encourage you to message them with questions before purchasing. This helps you evaluate fit and ensures they're the right choice for your goals and timeline. Otherwise, please email us at info@vdoto2.com and we’ll help you match with the right coach.
