Coach Dylan grew up in Denver, North Carolina, a small lake town just north of Charlotte. As a kid, Dylan more often spent his time on ballfields and courts than the tracks and trails. Running didn’t come naturally to Dylan, but it showed him how consistency and worth ethic over time lead to tremendous progress. It taught him to look at long term development over instantaneous results.

Dylan took this mindset into his collegiate career where he continued to develop and learn more about himself as a runner. It was during this time that he discovered his passion for helping others achieve success as well through coaching. As a leader among his teammates and his athletic department, Dylan lead by example and made it his priority to expand his education and knowledge of the sport and his role as a coach. Upon graduating college, Dylan moved to Flagstaff, Arizona to try and learn from the best runners and coaches the nation has to offer.

In Flagstaff, Dylan’s running career and coaching career truly began to blossom. Dylan has had the opportunity to train as a TRF-Under Armor Pro Athlete as well as been sponsored by Brooks Running Company. As a coach, Dylan has worked with both kids and adults through Run Flagstaff as well as coached 1,000s of runners to help them achieve their goals.

Now, Dylan brings his experience to Jovian Jogging Company with the mission to help runners of all levels find their own roles in the sport. Dylan’s continued curiousity for the sport encourages him to grow and develop more and more as both an athlete and coach and in turn helps his athletes discover the greatness in themselves.
