EXTRA Coaching Opportunities


Various “virtual” programs:

We offer some virtual coaching options for runners. All abilities and experiences welcome.

I will be offering virtual foot and gait analysis w/ shoe Brand & Model recommendations and running form evaluations.  I am doing this now because I know many runners are looking to purchase shoes but cannot get their foot or gait evaluated like they usually would when being fitted for the right running shoe for their foot type and gait.
Now may be a good time to have your running form evaluated too. If you never have, it just may make you a better runner.

What qualifies me to do this?
I have a BS in Environmental Chemistry (concentration in Water Chemistry) a Masters Degree in Education (concentration in A&P science), I am a USATF certified running coach and official and I have over 35 years of racing, coaching and officiating experience at ALL levels with exceptional successes. I have worked in the running retail and shoe manufacturing industries. I have worked with countless physical therapists, personal trainers, and medical professionals over the years when it comes to identifying form related issues and foot types. I have coached several thousand runners and athletes over the last 30 years. It is what I do full-time.

If you should have any questions, please contact me (Coach Pat O’Connor, Owner & Head Coach LTR) via email at oconnor@lunchtimerunner.com
