Though he played tennis for most of his life, Alain discovered his love for running, and fitness, in his first year of college. Focused predominantly on sprinting and jumping, he connected with the idea that everyone has the ability to become faster and more powerful, especially distance runners, if they could learn to become more biomechanically efficient. Understanding the alchemical impact of running, and pursuing goals, Alain decided to pursue a life of transforming the lives of others through running and fitness. Alain was the Head Track and Field Coach at The Chapin School for 5 years, he coached for two years on the collegiate level, and has 12 years of personal training experience under his belt. He is certified by USA Track and Field, and the National Academy of Sports Medicine as a coach, personal trainer, and Performance Enhancement Specialist.
