Welcome! I’m Coach Chris Knighton

I am a competitive masters runner and co-owner of Knighton Runs Coaching, based in Providence, Rhode Island. My private running lessons help passionate adults in Rhode Island reach their full distance running potential.

I’ve been coaching since 2019 at the adult, high school, and youth levels. I’m the author of the book, Run Faster Marathons: The Proven Path to PR and the upcoming book, Ageless Track Star: How to Become a Master’s Track Runner in Your 30’s, 40’s, or 50’s.

I’ve helped countless athletes get faster and become more confident in their running than ever before.

Whether it is by helping them run their first half, full marathon, or qualify for the Boston Marathon, my private lessons help passionate adults throughout Rhode Island become the high-performing athlete they’ve always wanted to be.
