Who it is for
Aspiring coaches: You have the passion and the running knowledge. You need structure, programming chops, and business know-how to make it work online.
Experienced coaches: You may already coach in person, but online is a different craft. You need remote communication, clearer systems, and a robust online offering that serves athletes.
It is not for recreational runners looking for one-to-one coaching.
Proof that works
Stazza’s Stable is a methodology that delivers. We are talking more than 950 sub-three-hour marathons coached. We have worked with Olympians. Coaches such as Mark O’Mahony have moved from other careers into successfully coaching large athlete groups online. This is proven in the real world, not only theory.
John “Stazza” Starrett has more than 40 years of coaching experience, and the athletes he has coached have run more than 950 sub-three-hour marathons. He coached Aoife Cooke to the Tokyo Olympics, and he now coaches athletes around the world, including a man from Ireland and a woman from the Philippines who are aiming for the next Olympic Games.
