Meet The Coaches

Coaches Owen Shott and Ethan Courson standing together on a running track after a race

Two coaches, one philosophy: your training should be built around your life, not the other way around. Owen leads as Head Coach; Ethan supports as Assistant Coach — together they cover cycling, running, and triathlon at every level.

Owen Shott

Frederick "Owen" Shott grew up in Inverness, Florida, and came to Jacksonville in 1999 on a track & field scholarship to Florida State College at Jacksonville (FSCJ). He never left — and he's been racing and winning here ever since, across running, triathlon, and cycling, plus multiple state and national championship titles.

In 2025 he represented Team USA at the World Championships in Australia and finished third.

Athletes shouldn't coach themselves — the same way surgeons don't operate on themselves.

Twenty-plus years of coaching span beginner 5K runners to Ironman finishers, including Boston and Kona qualifiers.

Ethan Courson

Ethan Courson is a Jacksonville native who came up through the sport as an elite junior cyclist. He holds national titles in triathlon and the cycling individual time trial, and has raced internationally in Belgium and the Netherlands.

Add multiple state titles and professional criterium wins, and you get a coach who's still close enough to the front of the pack to know exactly what it takes to get there.
