How it works
Discover new ways to elevate your running game.
Any athlete who wants professional guidance deserves that level of care and service. I care about how my runners are treated and their progress under our direction.
I start with a free consult call to meet prospective athletes to connect, learn more about running history, and their why for beginning run coaching. From there, we build out into our program with key features such as:
1:1 , Private Coaching
My approach is tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual, providing one-on-one guidance and support. No cookie cutter plans, just planning based around you! I provide running, strength, plyometric, and prep for race day guidance amongst other services as needed by each athlete
Flexibility
Your plans will adapt week to week based on your performance feedback, race goals, life stress, family events, or anything that may come up! Your job is to not figure out how to make it work in your schedule, that’s where I come in!
Unlimited Communication w/ Coach
There are coaches that tier communication behind paywalls. I hate that! I believe in open communication, as that allows me to be the best coach for you, and for you to get the most out of your time with me!
Your own Team gear!
Each Runner that joins the team will receive their own Team gear to represent the Poole Running Lab on Race Day!
Think you’ve ran your last PR? Think Again
Athletes who have run with us have ran amazing PR’s that they never thought was achievable! Below are a few examples of PRL runners who hit some crazy personal bests with us!
I noticed a big difference in training (Vs. Following a General Training plan). The feedback I received each session was super helpful, and makes me feel confident as I keep building up my mileage. Thanks Chris!
MARIA DAVID, weeks before she ran a 1 HOUR PR at the 2024 Las Vegas Marathon, running a 4:47!
Absolute amazing coach that will push you to your best and cares for your success….. helped me get noticed by a few collegiate teams. 10/10 recommend if you want top notch coaching
GUY BARKAN started running in early 2025 with a 21 minute 5K, and PB’d with a 17:28 after 4 months working with the Poole Running Lab!
I can not tell you how fantastic and influential Coach Poole has been! … He constantly communicates and pushed me while making changes as needed to the plan … I am truly shocked Coach Chris is not coaching collegians or Olympic level athletes.
