More About Coach Deion

My name is Deion Pruitt and I’m a former collegiate track and cross country athlete. I specialize in assisting aspiring runners (beginner, intermediate, and expert) with mid to long distance training. Whether you're training to run a sub 2 minute 800m run or you want to set a personal best in an upcoming 10K, I will provide you with the necessary insight and coaching in order for you to achieve your goals.

I was a 4 sport athlete in high school but my love and success in running led me to want to work with others to achieve similar dreams. My career as an athlete, coach, and trainer has taken me all over the country. I’ve set records in Chicago and have run the beaches in San Diego. I look forward to working with you in order to let running take you as far as you want to go.

My son runs xcountry and plays baseball. We started with Deion to get prepped for the cross season, then increase reaction time and running speed during his baseball season.

Deion is outstanding. He has not only worked on the physical aspects of running, but also the mental.

We are grateful for his knowledge and experience, he is a very talented coach. Our sons time have improved, his form has improved and he approaches the course with a planned strategy.

Coach Deion is an exceptionally talented and experienced coach. He has helped our son immensely with technique and performance. He is very patient and knowledgeable and is very accommodating with scheduling sessions. We would highly recommend Coach Deion for anyone looking to make improvements in their running performance.

My 14-year-old son has done 5 sessions with Coach Deion so far. They've been super-inspiring. Heading into track season, we're going back for another round of 5 sessions.
