CRAFTING CHAMPIONS
FROM THE GROUND UP.
Hello,
I'm Karri McCarter
Since 2017, I’ve dedicated my career to professional coaching—working with athletes across a wide spectrum of disciplines including sprints, relays, jumps, throws, distance, and multi-event training. My expertise is fortified by multiple USATF certifications and a unique specialty in para-athletic development, allowing me to serve a diverse range of athletes with customized precision.
​
But beyond accolades, my true success lies in empowering athletes to become their best selves—by coaching with intention, care, and unwavering belief in their ability to achieve greatness.
