Meet the Coach

Hi! I’m David Schwinger, an endurance coach dedicated to helping people of all levels discover their potential. Through five years of college athletics at Daemen University, a decade of running experience, and continuing education, I’ve learned hands-on what it takes to thrive (and fail) in endurance sports. I am a USATF Level 1 certified coach and hold a degree in Education, specializing in behavioral science.

I use an autonomy-supportive coaching style, which fosters intrinsic motivation and builds lasting, sustainable performance. Whether running your first 5k or ninth 100-miler, I’m committed to providing individualized training that adapts to your unique needs and ambitions.

I’m focused on helping people reach their endurance goals, regardless of age or experience level. Through a combination of behavioral science and coaching techniques, I create personalized training plans designed to maximize both your autonomy and physical capabilities.
