TESTIMONIALS

"My wife and I realized that our 11-year-old was not receiving the physical activity he needed... I knew Coach Brandon was great with kids, yet wasn’t sure our son would be a fit. I called and he said bring him and try it out. We did and it changed our son’s life, physically and mentally. Our son is focused and happy when he’s running. It’s also a safe place for him. Coach Brandon really creates that atmosphere. WARNING: If you go once to the free session, you will be signing up. The experience is just that positive!"

Erik & Tambrea V.

Parents

"Coach B is an amazing, dedicated coach. My son looks forward to running club each week to train and improve his running. My son has definitely gained speed and endurance because of the training. I highly recommend Coach B to any runner new or experienced."

Andrea D.

Parent

"Brandon's impact on my two daughters can't be quantified. His impact on their athletic ability has been significant. But the thing I appreciate the most is the relationship he has with them. He has a rare ability to challenge and inspire the people he works with."

Will H.

Parent

"We highly recommend Coach Brandon’s running program and private lessons... We have not only seen an improvement in my daughter's running skills, but she has gained confidence in herself and abilities... He is punctual, reliable, and responsive to texts/phone calls. Coach Brandon has provided training that has not been covered by her school coaches... Thanks Coach B!"

Kelly L

Parent

"I can't say enough about how Coach Brandon has helped my daughter's speed and acceleration in softball. Coach Brandon is a great speed and conditioning coach whether you are just getting started or just need to meet your goal or improve in your sport. He is extremely knowledgeable, has patience and truly motivates his students."

Parent

"Run for speed is hard work that has proven to be a game changer for my soccer and football playing, cross country and track running son. After a few series of sessions my then 12 year old improved his run efficiency and noticeably increased his speed... Six years in and focused soley on soccer, Jake returns for coaching between seasons... For a dozen reasons this investment was worth the time and money. It's been a great joy watching our son run with his full potential both physically and mentally."
