Rawdin Running

Structure builds confidence. Confidence builds performance.

My Philosophy

My coaching centers around individualized attention, evidence-based programming, and educating athletes on the principles behind their training. When you come to me, we dig into your goals, background, schedule, strengths, and weaknesses and build a plan around all of it. Running, strength, mobility, recovery. I adjust sessions weekly based on how you're responding, what your schedule looks like, and how you're feeling. Every week is built with intention. Nothing is one size fits all.

Running has been more than chasing times for me. It's been a journey of personal growth, resilience, and perspective. A good coach helps you hit your goals, but a great coach helps you build the mindset to believe in yourself, enjoy the process, and navigate the hard days with the same composure as the good ones. My motivation is the same as it's always been: to watch athletes embrace the training, challenge themselves, and carry what this sport teaches into every part of their life.

Sound familiar?
You're hungry

You want to PR your next race, qualify for Boston, tackle your first ultra, or just stop getting injured every time you ramp up. You know you need structure but you don't know where to start.

You hit a wall

You're logging miles without a plan, racing without a strategy, and wondering why the results aren't matching the effort.

You're guessing

You follow a free plan or use AI to generate something that sounds right, but it doesn't know your life. It doesn't adapt when your schedule shifts or build a race strategy for mile 20 of your specific marathon. Structure without coaching is not the same thing.

You're ready

You want someone in your corner who will be honest, who understands the principles behind training, and who treats your running like it matters. Because it does.

03

I build your plan

A fully customized training program delivered weekly through Final Surge, built around your schedule, your fitness, and your target race.

Weekly check-ins tell me how your body is responding. I analyze the data, adjust the plan, and keep you moving forward. Every week.

A deep-dive call to understand your goals, running history, injury background, and current fitness so I can build a plan that fits your life from day one.

About me

I went from zero running background to a Boston qualifier in my first marathon, a 2:39 marathon PR, and a 100-mile ultra finish — all within four years of my first run. I didn't grow up running track or cross country. I didn't have a coach handing me workouts. I didn't get to copy someone else's system and call it "training." I had to learn the foundation first, then build my own structure. Through specificity, consistency, and a mindset that treats every training session like it matters. That's the same system I build for every athlete I coach.

I don't coach runners to grind harder. I coach them to train smarter — with structure, strength work, and accountability that makes guessing unnecessary. When your pacing is dialed, your body feels prepared, and your plan has a reason behind every session, confidence isn't something you have to force. It's what happens when there's nothing left to second-guess.

Questions

You get a fully customized training plan delivered weekly through Final Surge, a dedicated coaching portal with all your training data, and direct access to me for feedback, adjustments, and strategy. Everything is built around your schedule, your goals, and your life.

A plan doesn't watch you. It doesn't adjust when life gets in the way, when your body sends signals, or when your race is three weeks out and the numbers say we need to shift. Coaching is a relationship between your data, your feedback, and my experience.

Speed is not the prerequisite. Commitment is. If you're willing to show up consistently, communicate honestly, and believe in the process, I can coach you. I've worked with first-time marathoners and competitive qualifiers. The approach is the same. The paces are different.

Yes. I ask for 30 days notice so we can close out your training block properly, but there are no long-term contracts. If the coaching isn't working for you, I'd rather know why than lock you in.

All of the run programming is built inside Final Surge and syncs directly to your Garmin, Apple Watch, Coros, or any wearable device. There is no manual entry. Every run is programmed specifically to you based on your pacing data, heart rate zones, threshold percentages, and race goals. Comment on workouts after each session, and your coach reviews and adjusts the plan week to week based on how your body is responding.

Strength exercises are integrated in Final Surge and include videos that help with guidance and form and other details. Your coach places your strength sessions directly on your Final Surge calendar so your full week lives in one place. Strength exercises are designed to complement your running volume, not compete with it.

Your plan is built around your goals, race calendar, training history, current fitness, weekly schedule, and available equipment. The run pacing targets are set using your actual data, not generic zones, and as you train, your coach analyzes your workouts, tracks how you're adapting, and adjusts the plan accordingly. Nothing is copy and pasted from a template.

For running, a GPS watch (Garmin, Apple Watch, or Coros) is strongly recommended so your workouts sync automatically. For strength, your coach can program around a full gym or minimalist home setup with dumbbells, kettlebells, bands, or a box. You'll get a plan that fits what you actually have access to.
