More About Coach Eric
I am currently the head men's and women's cross country coach at Lawrence Tech University. My sport is in the fall and part time, so I am looking for extra coaching opportunities during and after the season. I have over 35 years of running experience: 9 years as a running coach at the college, middle school and high school. I am also one of the top masters runners (over 40) in the state currently and still a competitor. Not very good experience with field events and sprints. I am looking to coach individuals who want to succeed in long distance training and pass on my knowledge and wisdom.
I am 50 years old and currently training as a elite masters runner with competitive finishes in local marathons and road races. 6th place finisher at 2013 Grand Rapids Marathon, top over 40 runner. Michigan Runner of the Year for Michigan Runner magazine in 2010, 2009 and 2011 Male Masters runner of the year. Personal best in Marathon 2:38 as a masters. Was a NCAA D2 All American in 800 meters in college. Former USATF Indoor Track and Field American record holder in mile (4:26) and 3000m (9:00) for ages 35-39
Session includes running with coach and last about 30 min to an hour. These sessions include running advice and training updates and answers to questions on how to become a better runner. As a college coach, I can also offer insight into the college recruitment process. Please ask a question about your training before booking a session.

We booked Coach Eric to help our son create an accelerated training plan for a 1/2 marathon in the fall. He was great to talk with and share concerns -- and he helped create a training plan our son can work for the next few weeks. What a huge wealth of knowledge -- and specific recommendations based on science, customized to our son's situation. Top notch -- his qualifications speak for themselves. Found him very easy to work with -- highly recommend.

Matthew (CoachUp client)
Coach Eric was fantastic. It took less than an hour for me to see what I needed to do to get where I hope to be, and I am now on the road to accomplishing my goals with running. I would highly recommend Eric to anyone, for improvement to any aspect of their running.
Malina (CoachUp client)
Coach Eric has been training my daughter since last November. He is been a positive influence on my daughter. He is knowledgeable and experienced. I highly recommend coach Eric.
John (CoachUp client)
We were looking for help on running form. Coach Eric listened carefully, and provided helpful coaching and feedback exactly where we needed. He was also flexible on dates and provided encouragement for continued improvement. Nice job!
Michele (CoachUp client)
Coach Eric had very good imput on what to and how to deal with my daughter for training for 5k races.
I have the same insight but what I found is that, me the father can only take her so far because after a time it becomes father/daughter instead of coach/runner so she doesn't take in the information like she use to. NOW WITH A 'REAL' COACH AND A GOOD ONE AT THAT, SHE IS MORE WILLING TO LISTEN AND LEARN..Thanks Coach Eric!
Greg (CoachUp client)
We had a great first session with Coach Eric! He gave my son some good, clear feedback on his running and some really good ways to think about his training. Coach Eric even followed up with a training plan to help my son improve over the coming weeks. Very satisfied and looking forward to much progress this summer.

I met Coach Eric for the first time today! He is very knowledgable and really listened to my needs and goals. I left the session excited, as we developed a very sound running plan. I am eager to continue working with him. I would highly recommend Coach Eric!
Rachel (CoachUp client)
Coach Eric has been working with my 12 year old son Sam for the past five months. His training has made a tremendous impact on Sam's running ability! From the very beginning, Eric was very professional. He came to our home and helped Sam (and his parents) feel at ease and confident in his coaching strategy. He has Sam following a daily training schedule that he continues to adjust as he becomes a stronger runner. I would definitely recommend Eric's training for any young athlete hoping to grow in cross country or track!
Stacey (CoachUp client)
Coach Eric and I had a great first run! His enthusiasm for the sport is contagious.
I am looking forward to the next!

Really good first session with Eric. Good initial pointers for my 13 year old on his 800m. He has also followed up a few times with extra ideas. Looking forward to working with Eric in the near future.

Working with Coach Eric has been great! He has been quick to respond to any questions, working with any limitations I have with the training schedule and was great at referring for a good running shoe fitting.
I look forward to more sessions with him and to see how the schedule he has set up prepares me for my first half marathon.
Eric (CoachUp client)
Coach Eric is a real pro and he did a nice job for our son. We plan on using him long-term.

Kelly (CoachUp client)
Coach Eric was a great fit for my 7th grade cross country runner. I am excited to see the progress they will make together between now and the fall race season. Coach Eric responds to inquires very quickly and it was easy to schedule our first session. I look forward to working with him again.

My first session with Coach Eric went very well, he addressed the questions that I had and helped me to understand what I need to do to get faster.
Kris Bergmann (Testimonial)
Coach Eric helped me and my husband set up a training schedule for us to run a half marathon. Since we have busy schedules and can not run everyday, he tailored a training schedule to accommodate the days we could not run. Hoping to run a good marathon this spring.
