Legendary running coach Jack Daniels is now offering his private coaching services exclusively through The Run SMART Project. Named “The World’s Best Coach” by Runner’s World, he led Cortland runners to eight NCAA Division III National Championships, 31 individual national titles, and more than 130 All-America awards. He is famous for writing Daniels’ Running Formula, a 1998 book outlining his unique training philosophies.
Jack offers two separate coaching options:
1. Training Plans. Jack currently offers individualized 5k, 10k, half marathon and marathon training schedules. The schedules are designed by Jack and then formulated so every pace of every workout is personalized to match your running profile. All plans can be customized to fit your personal schedule and include email support along the way from a Run SMART coach.

2. Private Coaching. Jack will design a monthly training schedule, which includes specific workouts and is built around your profile and goals/objectives. Clients will have access to Jack’s running philosophy and feedback along the way via email. If at any point during the training process you have questions, concerns or setbacks, Jack will be there to help you adjust your training and get you back on track.
To work privately with Jack go ahead and sign up below. After submitting payment you will receive a link to fill out a short running profile form. Once Jack reviews your profile he will begin working on your monthly schedule at which time you will have access to him via email for questions and feedback.

It includes time and V02 Max correlation indexes (referred to as “VDOT”) for common road and track races (some not so common ones too). In it you will find over 40 race distances from 800m to 50,000m (including metric and English measurement) all with an associated VDOT to the nearest 0.1!
This is a MUST HAVE for all students of the sport of running. Currently it exists in limited quantities and is published solely by the one and only Dr. Jack Daniels. Reserve your copy below, now!

An autobiography by Dr. Jack Daniels


I am truly honored to have the opportunity to assist Dr. Daniels as a member of The Run SMART Project. As Jack’s assistant I will be coordinating with all of his clients to ensure the coaching service flows properly. His training has really helped to shape my success and I believe in it wholeheartedly.
I enjoy seeing people succeed (myself included). I believe that a great deal of camaraderie lies in sharing a mutual vision with others. I believe that the knowledge I have gained and insight into smart training is can help others meet and exceed expectations.
As a member of The Run SMART team I am dedicated to nurturing professional running relationships with my clients. Every individual has goals and it is individual attention to those goals that affords the greatest opportunity to reach them. I will approach your goals the way I approach my own with tenacity, thoughtfulness, smart training and a keen insight into race day preparation.
