Hi, I’m Josh.

I am a former collegiate distance runner, 2:36 marathon runner and longtime coach of the sport.

I have coached runners across adult exercise groups, youth cross country clubs and Division I track and field.

Although I have experience in high-level competition, my passion lies in fostering a love for the sport of running in others.

Longstride coaching has seen adults run their first 5k and young stars become All-Americans. I work hard to deliver proven training methods to all skill levels.

“Working with Josh has helped me not only get back into running, but I’ve been able to succeed in goals I never thought were possible. His knowledge, patience and enthusiasm has helped me excel in my running journey and I look forward to continuing to work with him”
