Brandon has been my coach for about 3.5 years. He’s trained me through my first marathon, pregnancy, and postpartum. Brandon is such a great coach because he’s not only propelled me to huge PBs, but he’s done it in the context of time constraints with a full time job and being a present parent. I’d recommend Brandon and run your personal best to any busy runner looking to get the most out of your training and see how fast you can go.

I have been working with Brandon for almost 3 years now, and there are not enough words for how great it has been! My progress has been nothing but linear, taking my marathon time from a 3:27 to a 3:07, along with other PR’s in other distances. Aside from time goals, the training I have been given has overall made me a stronger runner, physically and mentally. Brandon is very in tune with what I am capable of, and challenges me day by day with the workouts he gives. He listens to my goals and builds workouts necessary to reaching these. Nothing but gratitude for Brandon and RYPB!!

Brandon (from RYPB) has been coaching me for over four years now, and deciding to work with RYPB was the best decision I've made to improve my running. Brandon is as knowledgeable as they come, very thoughtful and attuned, and committed to supporting me and helping me reach my running goals. With Brandon's continued support, I'm confident that I have many more years of improvement and self-actualization ahead!

I’ve been training with Brandon for just under three years now, and although he was the first coach I ever hired, I know I hit the jackpot. He has a great way of listening to what I want to achieve and then building the exact workouts and advice to get me there. Since following his program, I’m not just faster and more confident; I’m actually having fun with my training. After hearing about others' mixed experiences with coaching, I feel so lucky that I chose Brandon to support my running journey right from the start.

I started working with Coach Brandon through RYPB back in 2022 when I was looking for some guidance and accountability to complete a half marathon as a once-a-week jogger. I had no expectation of continuing to run after that race, but it has since turned into a long-term coaching relationship. My running and overall fitness have improved far beyond what I ever thought possible, including qualifying for Boston, running a sub-90 half marathon, and setting massive PRs at every distance. What really sets RYPB apart is how personalized the coaching is. Training plans are tailored not just to my running goals, but to my actual life, including balancing other sports I participate in. I never feel like I’m following a generic plan, and Brandon is great about adjusting workouts when needed and truly listening to feedback. As I’ve increased my own investment in the sport and set bigger goals, Brandon has supported me every step of the way and adapted my training accordingly, without ever pushing me to the point of burnout. I’m incredibly thankful I found RYPB and Coach Brandon. There’s no way I would have stayed in the sport or achieved the success I have without his guidance, patience, and thoughtful strategy. His knowledge of running is extensive, and it’s clear he genuinely wants to help people succeed on their own terms. 10/10 RYPB is a great investment in your present and future self

From Couch to 4:20 mile I was a decent NCAA athlete in my day but since graduating I stopped running competitively and put on about 60 pounds. Brandon was able to coach me, in a very limited time, from a weight lifting couch potato to a competitive 4:20 miler. His knowledge of current optimal training methods and his ability to cater things toward my lifestyle helped to accelerate my progress at a rate I didn't really think was possible. He started coaching me in February of 2025 and by June of 2025 I was winning road miles and running 4:20 with a powerful kick at the end. I was also able to run 1:58 for 800m, something I hadn't done since college in 2012. I highly recommend Brandon's coaching as it seems to have a bit of that 'magic touch' that will have you shocked at your own race times.

This honestly might be one of the first reviews I’ve ever written which I hope signifies that Brandon is the real deal! I can base this entire review solely on results. I know Brandon has successfully trained many people for all kinds of races and events. What sets him apart is he has also successfully trained myself and another individual for arduous selection pipelines within the SOF community. I’m sure there have been others but I’m just speaking from what I know and my experience. Without Brandon’s knowledge and coaching I truly believe the outcome would have been significantly different. He is responsive if you need someone to make quick changes. He is intelligent and will explain the reason if something needs to change. He gives you all the tools you need to prevent injury and perform at the level you want to or need to. His own accolades also speak for themselves. Being a good athlete is one thing but having a good coach is everything. You could be the most athletic person in the world but you need someone who knows how to direct that, push it, and train that person. Brandon will do all of those things. If you listen, trust the process, and do the work he will get you where you want to go. Alright, I’m hoping off the soap box. You want to break records, push yourself and get better then Brandon is your guy. For the dudes getting ready for some sort of pipeline Brandon is also your guy!

I’ve worked with Coach Cory for a couple years now and I have to say it was the best decision I’ve made regarding my training. He’s coached me through multiple races and helped me reach PR’s in marathon, half and 5K. His support and teaching is unmatched and I can’t recommend Run Your Personal Best enough!
