SARAH KEARNEY

Lead Endurance and Performance Coach

Successful coaching is about putting together a great program and adopting a supportive team culture. It is key to recruit athletes across all abilities, matching them to a training group that complements their ability, and that will have a positive impact on their enjoyment and development.  I encourage a train to race philosophy where athletes are not afraid to have a go.  Sport is not a one size fits all, we all have different strengths and weaknesses, by having a go, and trying different types of events most athletes find an event that will bring them success.

Endurance Training Expert

As a coach I love working with young people because of their joy for life and their fun approach. I get much more satisfaction from helping them to succeed than I ever got from my own racing.

Athletics and Cross Country

I have always had a love for physical acitivty. From a young age I competed on cross country and athletics. Once I had my three children and they got involved in the sport I became more interested in coaching, which I do alongside competing.

Juniors and Seniors

Drawing on my experience racing, training and coaching in US colleges, I coach athletes from 5k to marathon, with a view to developing the strength and depth of our senior teams, and transitioning older juniors to successful senior racing.
