Sean Fortune
NYC Running Coach Sean Fortune works with runners, cyclists, and triathletes. As a swimmer and cyclist himself, he understands the specific needs of these unique athletes
I've been training with Sean since July 2013. I knew Sean from a time I was coached by him at Urban Athletics back in '08 and had good memories of then so wanted to see what one-on-one coaching might be like.
During that brutal winter last year, Sean and I trained outdoors every single week. Usually 2x a week. Seriously, we didn't miss a week. That's the kind of coach I want. Rain, sleet, snow, freezing temps -- he showed up for me and helped make me a better overall athlete.
I mostly depend on Sean for my speedwork. He keeps me accountable, on track, and informed of the progress I'm making through his solid feedback. This has made a big difference in my running speed and strength.
He's very knowledgable, direct, and to-the-point which is my preference for a coach. I'm not much for chit-chatty coaches and he's not that. I want Sean as a coach, not a friend. Tells it to me like it is. Acknowledges breakthrough workouts. But also tells me when my performance and output stinks.
Highly recommended
