Working with you to reach your competitive goals!
Hi, My name is Robert Holt. I am a former Division 1 NCAA track and field and cross country athlete. I ran cross country and track and field at Texas A&M University, and I’ve trained under some of the most successful coaches around. I’ve been an elite high school runner, having posted some of the fastest marks in Texas, and in the nation for seasons (2018/2019). No matter where you are in your running career, I can help you set and realize competitive goals.

How I can help you improve your game:
Every athlete is unique. Different runners are at different levels.
Whether you are just breaking into the sport, learning form and fundamentals, or have been running for years and you’re looking to achieve new heights, we will assess where you are and help you set and achieve competitive goals.
I will tailor our training sessions to your needs as an athlete.
Personalized workouts
Goal setting
Mobility exercises & plyometrics
Injury prevention
Racing fast mindset
What a typical training session looks like with me:
The contents of a training session can vary based on a number of factors, one being the event distance that the runner focuses on, another being the level and fitness of the runner.
However, most sessions will consist of a warm up, plyometrics and mobility, a personalized workout (usually on the track), and a cool down run.
Career summary and accomplishments:
I have worked intimately with professional runners and top NCAA coaches and trainers as an athlete, and have a comprehensive understanding of competitive running.
Best coach I ever had:
I’ve worked with great coaches, like 36-time national title winning coach, Pat Henry & Coach Wendel McRaven of Texas A&M University, where I learned invaluable lessons of the sport.
However, the best coach I’ve had has been former Dripping Springs high school cross country and track and field coach, Marisa Tuzzi; a former Texas A&M distance athlete herself.
She had an impact on my running career because her investment in her athletes was apparent. There was no question as to whether coach Tuzzi and I had the same vision of success.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
A good coach has an infectious passion for their sport. I’ve been in or around the sport of track and field for the past 10 years. I also have direct insight into the world of collegiate track and field and knowledge of the recruiting process.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I contact a coach?
If you’re looking to message a coach for the first time, go to their profile and click “Send a Message”. A type box will show, where you can enter and send your message. To follow up with a coach you've already contacted, log into your account and find the 'Inbox' tab. You'll see your message history and be able to send another note.
How do I book lessons?
Once you find a coach that fits your needs, go to their profile, select the package you'd like to purchase, and click 'Book Lessons'. Here, you can reserve your desired number of lessons along with the number of athletes who will be training. After sessions are booked, coordinate the dates/times for each session on your calendar - using the calendar is important since this is how your coach will get paid.
Can I pay my coach via Venmo or cash?
Paying AU coaches via cash, Venmo, or any 3rd party is strictly prohibited. AU coaches know this, but their partnership with us is to split all bookings 80/20 - so coaches keep 80%. We use our 20% to help them find clients & manage their business. Without the split, we wouldn't be able to help our coaches & community thrive!
What if I don't feel comfortable paying online?
We integrate with Stripe - the largest & most secure payment processor in the US - to facilitate bookings. Paying online is required, and it simplifies the process for our coaches since it helps track their schedule & earnings in one place. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our support team.
Where will the coach hold their lessons?
Each coach typically has at least one preferred training location. You can see the location(s) by going to your coach's profile and finding the 'Training Locations' section. If a coach doesn't have locations listed here, you can message the coach to see where they train. Some coaches are willing to travel to clients for lessons, or even meet halfway.
When is the coach available to train?
Each coach sets their own schedule for training. You can see a coach's general availability by going to their profile and finding the 'Availability' section - it will list the days and times. If a coach doesn't post their availability, or if your preferred coach doesn't have your desired times available but you want to double check, message them to see if they can work with your schedule.
What if I don't love the first lesson?
The AU guarantee (refund policy) has you covered! If you determine the coach isn't a good fit after your first lesson, let us know within 24 hours and you're eligible for a refund. We will also be happy to recommend another coach - be sure to contact our support team.
Do coaches work with both kids & adults?
Our coaches are open to helping athletes of any age and skill level. Please message your desired coach to ensure their skillset fits your needs.
Why should I trust AU and their coaches over other platforms?
AU was created by former collegiate and professional athletes. We understand the benefits of training with a private coach. It develops discipline, boosts confidence, and provides an undeniable advantage - whether you are just learning the game or looking to earn a college scholarship. All AU coaches are required to pass a thorough onboarding process and we proudly showcase a 10% acceptance rate, so you can trust you're training with the best.
At the end of the day, our mission is to provide athletes with better opportunities to succeed through coaching. You won't find a platform, and group of dedicated specialists, more excited to help you achieve your athletic goals!
