Greg McMillan, M.S.
Greg McMillan is a runner, exercise scientist and coach who has the unique ability to combine the science of endurance performance with the art of real-world coaching. Greg has a masters degree in Exercise Physiology where his research focused on the determining factors of distance running performance. A student of the sport since he began running in high school, he continues to apply advances in sports science to his training programs. As with his study of sports science, Greg continues to learn from the athletes and coaches of yesterday and today. He vigorously studies the great books on running and is eager to be around successful coaches and athletes to learn from their experiences. In fact, he recently completed a two-year stint working with Gabriele Rosa, the great coach of such stars as marathon world-record holder Paul Tergat, world-champion Moses Tanui and New York City and Boston Marathon course record holder Margaret Okayo. Always eager to learn and apply his insights, Greg had the opportunity to apply Rosa's training philosophy with the Discovery USA marathon training group. This experience has furthered his knowledge of training and adds to his unique personal coaching program that blends a variety of experiences with athletes from beginners to the world's best. He also toured with his coaching mentor, Arthur Lydiard, and was by the master coach's side when he died in 2004. Throughout his coaching career, Greg has been successful at helping a wide range of athletes. He has coached Olympic hopefuls, regionally competitive runners as well as beginners. He has worked successfully with middle-distance runners as well as marathoners. His athletes include elite runners just out of college, masters runners at the top of the US ranks as well as older runners who maintain the drive and passion that running instills. He has worked with males and females, individuals and teams, all with equal success. He has coached in college, worked with high school runners and led adult running programs. Above all his focus is on success for ALL runners. Most of his athletes are self-described "middle of the packers" who juggle training with work and family commitments. Most athletes attribute Greg's success and that of McMillan Running to not only a full knowledge and experience with training but to a positive attitude and passion for helping others. From the beginning, Greg's mission and that of McMillan Running has been to help people fulfill their potential.
