To provide solid instruction, programs in strength, speed and teamwork is a passion she's always enjoyed sharing with people.

Brian Miller 

Brian has worked for Fleet Feet since opening in June of 2017. He is originally from Kirkland, IL. In high school, Brian played basketball and ran track. Since graduating in 1979 from Hiawatha High School, Brian has continued to run. He has run 41 marathons (Boston twice), more than 100 half marathons, and too many 5k's to count. His fastest marathon time was 2:42! Brian still runs every day and you can usually catch him running the bike path by the YMCA or somewhere on Rockford's west side. A little known fact about Brian is that aside from his impressive running career, he is also a black belt in Tae Kwon Do. At Fleet Feet, Brian works as an Outfitter and serves as one of the running coaches for various training groups. He is excited to begin coaching the new Fleet Feet Racing Team and pass on his wisdom about running with you. He is an incredible pacer and motivator and will help you find your new race pace. 

 

Race Team Requirements:

Runners should have a goal to improve their current fitness level and want to join a weekly coached workout with other race team members. Members should have the desire to represent Fleet Feet Rockford with team gear and to encourage all runners at races.
