"I went from a 4:38 marathon to 2:39. I built the coaching app I wish I'd had along the way"

Justin Cannon

Justin Cannon

Marathon coach · 4:38 → 2:39 marathoner

I’m Justin Cannon, a marathon coach, 2:39 marathoner, and busy runner myself. I know what it’s like to chase ambitious running goals while balancing a career, family, and everything else life throws at you.

My own marathon journey taught me that getting faster isn't about finding the perfect training plan. It's about consistently applying the right training principles, and knowing how to adjust them to the runner and the situation.

That's the same approach I use with the runners I coach. This app was built to make that coaching philosophy available every day: purposeful training, smart progression, practical fueling and recovery, and guidance that helps you understand not just what to do, but why you're doing it.

JPocatello

The principles behind my coaching

Train with purpose — Every run has a reason. More isn't always better.
Build progressively — Fitness comes from stacking consistent weeks, not heroic individual workouts.
Keep easy days easy — Recovery is part of training—not something that gets in the way of it.
Fuel the work — Train hard, fuel appropriately, and give your body what it needs to adapt.
Adapt when life happens — Missed workouts, travel, fatigue, and schedule changes shouldn't derail your entire plan.
Execute with confidence — Arrive at the start line knowing your pacing, fueling, and race-day plan.
Prepare specifically — As race day approaches, your training increasingly prepares you for the exact demands of your marathon.
AI-POWERED COACHING

My coaching principles. Personalized to you with AI.

The app combines the marathon training principles I use with my athletes with AI that learns your fitness, schedule, goals, and training—so your coaching can adapt as you do.

I started training just hoping to finish a half marathon without walking. I was 5 months post-partum and had a 3-hour goal in mind, but Justin built me a plan that actually made me believe I could do better. I ended up running a 2:42 and felt strong the whole way.

Training with Justin has been a game-changer. The workouts bring structure, focus, and a no-excuses mindset — but always with real-life flexibility. We pushed each other to new heights, and it was the best feeling in the world to finish 2:39 and 2:41 after all that hard work.
