Athletics East is a Boston based farm team and developmental club with athletes from mainly the New England area though we will coach and facilitate training for runners throughout the United States. Athletics East was founded to provide athletes with the structure, environment and support to enable them to reach their full potential. The current coaching staff comes from a serious track and field and middle distance background with road racing and marathon experience as well. Our current roster includes several top caliber runners in both the Open and Master's divisions.
What Sets Us Apart
Athletics East's mission is to give current runners and T & F athletes the training and coaching they need to reach their goals. We strive to utilize the support and potential of our current roster to help all team members become more competitive and achieve their goals to the highest of levels. In addition, what sets our club apart is the fact that all coaching is done on a coach to individual athlete basis, something atypical of today's American club systems.
