What’s Included With Galloway Customized Coaching +
Every Galloway Customized Coaching + athlete gets the same core program – personalized to your goals, your race, and your life.
Built on Jeff Galloway’s
Run‑Walk‑Run® Method
Jeff Galloway — Olympian, bestselling author, and the creator of the Run‑Walk‑Run® method, developed an approach to running that has helped hundreds of thousands of runners finish races injury-free. The method uses strategic walk breaks to reduce impact, prevent overuse injuries, and help runners maintain pace longer.
Galloway Coaching applies this method to every plan Chris builds. It’s not about running less. It’s about running smarter. Runners using Run‑Walk‑Run® regularly report faster finish times, fewer injuries, and more consistent training.

What Runners Are Saying
Real runners. Real results.
I had never run a step prior to my retirement at age 60. I’m now 62 and have run 42 races, including three marathons and three ultra marathons, all without injury.

Surgery stopped my training for months. Chris put together a plan customized for me. When I asked how far behind I was, he said I wasn’t behind; this was my plan. What a huge confidence boost.
Mark Dopey Challenge finisher · post-surgery rebuildThanks to Galloway Customized Training, I transformed from a non-runner to completing an ultramarathon. The personalized plan and support from Coach Twiggs have been my anchor during challenging moments.
Tomi Non-runner → ultramarathon finisherWhen I started running in December 2020, I thought I would never run more than a 5K. Since finding the program in 2022, I have completed 3 marathons, 14 half marathons, and many shorter distances. My speed is improving.
