MEET THE COACHES
At Vertis Coaching, we are more than just running coaches—we are your partners in achieving your personal best.


Your Running Goals, Our Passion
We noticed a gap in quality coaching for runners with busy lives, so we built the team we wished we had. We brought together coaches from all walks of life so that we can truly understand your journey. With former D1 athletes, physical therapists, returning elites, and working professionals on our team, we've been there. We know what it's like to balance work, family, and a social life while still chasing your best. Our mission is simple: bring high-quality, personalized coaching to your training so you never have to fit life into your running. Enjoy the journey and let us handle the thinking.
Meet the Vertis Coaching Team

Mark is your head coach and an Olympic Trials qualifier with over 20 years of elite running experience and the range to back it up. From elite high schoolers to sub-2:30 marathoners to first-time runners finding their footing, no athlete is too advanced or too new. If you're ready to train with someone who has lived the sport and coached results at every level, you're in the right place.
Mark Pinales
Head Coach & Founder

Mason knows what it takes to reinvent yourself as an athlete. After stepping away from D1 football, he lost 60 lbs, picked up running, and Boston Qualified within his first year, competing across every distance along the way. That kind of rapid, disciplined progression is exactly what he brings to his athletes. If you're serious about racing and want a coach who has done the hard work himself, Mason gets it.
Mason Jordan
Run Coach

Victoria went from recreational runner to sub-1:47 half marathoner, and she knows exactly what that journey demands. As a physical therapist, she blends smart training with injury prevention in a way most coaches simply can't. If you've felt stuck or just need that extra layer of support, Victoria meets you where you are and pushes you further than you thought possible.
Victoria Loving
