Doug’s teams have finished on the NXN podium 7 times and in 2015 his boys team won it all. He built Great Oak High School into a national powerhouse. Then he took over a new program in 2022 (Herriman) and in his first year there they finished 3rd at NXN. Although there are advantages to coaching in that area of the country, Doug shares principles that can be applied anywhere even if you are not a high school coach. Qualities of a good leader. Getting people to buy-in to your system. Working hard and making sacrifices but also coaching the whole person. And a good chunk of training talk at the end including Doug’s thoughts on mileage, developing athletes (not just runners), and staying healthy.
