Boston qualifying is a standard, not a slogan
BQ depends on age and gender, and standards are set by event organisers. Always check the current official Boston Athletic Association qualifying times; this page does not publish an unofficial table. Your coach writes a custom Boston qualifier training plan around your standard, your race and your life, and adjusts it every week.
Coach Stazza builds around you online with Final Surge sessions and check-ins that keep the plan honest. Sub-3 may help some athletes and be insufficient for others.
How BQ coaching works
- Profile, assessment and a consult of about 30 minutes.
- A roadmap aimed at your qualifier race, with recovery built in.
- Final Surge sessions plus weekly and monthly check-ins.
Who this is for
Runners with clear BQ intent who want honest progression and a plan that fits life. Pure sub-3 intent? See sub-3 coaching. Exploring the distance? See marathon coaching.
