The gap isn’t in your training
You're putting in the training. The workouts are there. But something tightens up on race day that no training block has been able to fix. The doubt creeps in at the worst moment. The anxiety before a big effort feels bigger than it should. You know you're capable of more — and that gap between what you're doing and what you know you can do is the most frustrating place in sport.
You need a guide who's been in your world.
Dr. Josh Coon is a Sport & Performance Psychologist, former NCAA endurance coach, and lifelong runner. He works with professional and elite athletes — including members of NAZ Elite, Brooks Beasts, and Nike athletes — to build the mental performance infrastructure that holds up under real race pressure.
This isn't generic sport psychology. It's crafted specifically for each athlete to meet their specific race demands.

“Dr. Josh has helped me re-discover my strengths as an athlete through his value-based performance coaching. Through his facilitation I've shifted away from being outcome-driven as a result of burn-out and internal pressure to connecting with my "why" and the elements of performance that are motivated by my values. I appreciate his calm and grounded ability to listen and observe my experience in ways that help me affirm my own learning and growth. Ultimately the work we've done together have given me the tools to have some of the most fulfilling athletic experiences and are inspiring how I continue to shape my goals and career.”
