» Coaching runners of all levels - road, trail, and ultra

Welcome to DeWitt Coaching

Going out and running each day at the same pace can be fun, and suits many runners fine, but it isn't going to enable you to achieve the best results in your races. Simply running more each day isn't going to maximize your potential either. What each runner needs, and what I believe in providing, is a balanced training program with a specific purpose driving each run. For those of you focusing on ultramarathons, strategy, logistics, and fuel/hydration are extremely important topics that will also be addressed and practised in your workouts. I will also help you analyze your running history to figure out where your strengths and weaknesses are, and adjust your training accordingly.

Getting Started

Getting started with a coaching program is easy - I'm ready whenever you are. All it takes is a few minutes of your time to fill out an Athlete Questionnaire and pick which plan works best for you. Then the real work begins!

Cross-Training

While it is certainly possible to  run 50 or 100 miles with nothing more than running as part of your training program, I believe you'll be a better runner, and certainly a more fit athlete, if you include other cross-training activities in your training.
So I encourage all my runners to incorporate weight lifting, core exercises, and plyometrics into their routines. Along with your specific running workouts, I'll help you add these cross-training activities to your schedule.
