"I love coaching the Mighty Milers! These kids range from our next superstars to the kids who need an outlet that haven't found it with other sports. We welcome kids of all levels and have a goal of just having fun! We hope that along the way we get some PRs, teach some valuable life skills (teamwork, leadership, communication etc) and turn running from a punishment into a passion. Whether you are just staying in shape for other sports or you want to be a state champion one day, Mighty Milers is an amazing program that welcomes you."
