Looking for a Boston Marathon running coach?
Kenny offers personalized periodization, recovery tracking, and integrated training to help you BQ.
Expert Running Coaching for The Boston Marathon & Beyond
Most self-coached runners optimize what they can measure — miles logged, splits hit.
But the gains that actually move a marathon time come from what doesn't show up on a watch: how hard weeks are sequenced against easy ones, how recovery is timed before it becomes overdue, the small weekly adjustments that compound over a training cycle.
Get those wrong long enough and you don't get faster. You get hurt, or you plateau exactly where you started last season.
Based in Newton, MA, Kenny builds plans around those variables first. Pace comes after.
How It Works
Training is Hard, Communication is Key So That You Can Crush Your Goals!
You'll have a real conversation — your goals, your history, what's worked, what hasn't. Kenny listens first, then builds the plan.
A good training plan is only as useful as the feedback loop behind it.
Kenny checks in. He adjusts.
When something feels wrong, you tell him and he responds on time. If you have worked with a coach who just sent you a spreadsheet and went quiet, you know the difference.
Monthly Coaching Fee $200. Here's The Math.
One missed taper, one nagging injury, one plateaued cycle — any of those costs you more than a few months of coaching, in time alone. If this gets you to your goal race even one cycle sooner, or keeps you off the sidelines once, it's already paid for itself.
How to Get Started:
- Connect: Click CONTACT KENNY below.
- Consult: A call will be scheduled to discuss your history, training goals, and PR aspirations.

I just ran the New Bedford Half Marathon and felt stronger at the finish line than I ever had before!
You transformed how I train. The structured plan took the guesswork out of every week, building mileage and speedi n a way that felt challenging but never reckless. What impressed me most was the attention to pacing and injury prevention.
I'm running faster and farther than I though possible, and my body feels good doing it.

I have been an avid runner for about 20 years and have worked with other coaches along the way. I've never had results like the ones I have had since working with Kenny.
Three words I believe are imbedded in the ethos of what Kenny brings to the table:
Strength – Kenny is the best there is at working with you, as a team, to reach your goals. You will learn to trust that you have what it takes (if you do the work). This, I believe, is what separates him from everyone else. He will work with you, around your schedule, knowing that…as he says, “life happens”. Kenny will have you trusting in the plan and trusting in yourself. If you put in the work, you will be flying in no time. He will work the plan, adjust, amend, and get you going.
Heart – Kenny will show you that you can push yourself more than you thought you could. He will give you to tools to prove to yourself that you can do it and you will!! He will check in with you to make sure you know you’ve got it. He will not only work on the body, he will strengthen your belief in yourself.
Experience – Kenny isn’t just telling you what you can do, he is doing it too. Everyday he is out there getting miles and inspiring you to move. On top of it all, he can answer any question you have; from fueling, to cadence, to heart rate, to pace, and beyond.
The best there is!

I can’t express how grateful I am for Kenny’s wisdom and guidance through a Boston Marathon training block, and now into a fall marathon training period.
I started training unsure of how to approach my third marathon more effectively, when I was introduced to Kenny. I ended the first month of training under his wing hitting paces I’ve never seen on my watch before and feeling stronger than ever. I’ve never learned so much about running or fallen more in love with the sport had it not been for Kenny’s insight.
His passion for running is contagious and it shows in his runners.
Approaching race day, I unfortunately got sick. But because of Kenny, I had created three different goals to fall back on: one if all went well, one if I hit a couple of hiccups, and one if things went awry. The marathon would have completely fallen apart had I not developed those three goals and known I could still deliver even if the day didn’t go according to plan.
Kenny has changed the way I train and think about running, and I couldn’t be more excited to continue working with him for the next races.
