Working with Coach Benson has truly been one of the most impactful and encouraging experiences of my running journey. When I started coaching with him in December, I was just a millennial mom who loved to run—but didn’t imagine myself ever having a running coach. From day one, Benson made me feel special, supported, and capable of more than I thought possible.
He brings not only incredible expertise—having competed at a high level in college and continuing to race competitively today—but also a rare kind of heart. (iykyk 😉 ) He shows up for every athlete, no matter where they’re starting from. Whether you’re a young runner in the off-season, training for your first 5K, or aiming for a major race, Benson meets you where you are and helps you grow.
He’s helped me train smarter, stay motivated, and pursue goals I wouldn’t have had the confidence to chase on my own. More than a coach, he’s been a steady and positive presence in my life—and I’m incredibly grateful.
If you’re considering working with a coach to take your running to the next level—or just want someone in your corner who truly cares—I can’t recommend Coach Benson highly enough!
Thank you, Benson!
