If there is one thing I miss about NYC its my running in Central Park with Sean Fortune , Central Park Coaching as my running coach. Sean is a fantastic , educated running coach, and trainer that understands each individuals capacity as a runner.

He understands and educates on body mechanics. There were times when I felt certain goals were impossible… but Sean helped me realize, that If I dug deep enough and believed, the times and paces I thought were out of my reach were attainable. He helped me tap into my speed.. since he saw I am a better short distance runner, with capability for speed at my age, but understood I love the long run, and marathon training.

Happily, Central Park Coaching is now coming to Miami as SouthBeach Coaching..

I have loved working with Sean for the last 12 months. His thoughtful workout routines and flexibility given my work and family commitments have been revolutionary for me. I bettered my PR in the New York Marathon by over 1 hour through my work with him, and generally feel like a more informed and healthier athlete. I could not recommend him more highly!

Sean is hands down the best running coach in the NYC area. I did a lot of research when choosing a coach for my 13 year old daughter and all paths led back to him. He has not disappointed. My daughter’s performance has improved dramatically since training with him. Also helps that he is a super nice guy! He should run for mayor of Central Park ;)

Sean is a fantastic coach who helps runners of all abilities get PR's and reach levels they didn't know they could get to. His breadth of knowledge and ability to coach the individual athlete to their needs make him a standout among the top coaches. I treat many runners in my practice for various running injuries. I know when I send them to Sean for coaching he has nothing but the athlete's best interest at the forefront of his coaching. I highly recommend Central Park Coaching.

Sean is a pleasure to work with. He is professional, knowledgeable, and he always manages to pick the perfect workout for where I am at that day.

I truly enjoyed my experience working with Coach Sean. Amazing coach but above all, amazing individual. Clear with his directions & great energy!

My husband and I had the pleasure of training with Sean in preparation for the 2017 NYC Marathon and have continued with him to this day.

While we had previously run several marathons, we knew we needed to incorporate speed and hill work in order to enhance our performance. Not only did Sean help us to improve our technique, he challenged us beyond what we thought we were capable of achieving.

Each training session was carefully constructed to help us to improve our performance and build mental stamina. It was clear to both of us that Sean is passionate about coaching. A sign of a good coach is someone who recognizes your potential and challenges you to achieve it. After training with Sean, I was able to achieve my personal best in a marathon!

Sean Fortune’s run coaching helped me achieve a personal record in my 2023 NYC marathon! I am grateful for his practical advice and training sessions over 6 months along with tips on nutrition, injury prevention, stretching, gear and race day fuel. He also has an optimistic outlook which is helpful. I highly recommend Sean to anyone who wants to put in the time and work to achieve a great running race, and enjoy the process!

I worked with Sean in the months leading up to the 2023 NYC marathon and would highly

recommend training with him! He shaved over 20 minutes (!) off my best marathon time and was an amazing resource for all things running from improving my form, figuring out the right training plan and deciding which shoes to wear. Thank you Sean!!
