McMillanElite

McMillanElite, Inc. is a non-profit Olympic development running team based in Flagstaff, Arizona. The team is a collaboration between adidas and McMillan Running Company. Emerging elite long distance runners are offered an entry level sponsorship from adidas and coaching from Greg McMillan. Athletes live and train in Flagstaff, Arizona and focus on events from the 5K to the marathon.

Mission & Purpose

The mission of the team is to develop athletes capable of competing successfully at the national and international level in long distance running. History indicates that U.S. distance runners don’t reach their full potential and race their best until several years after the completion of their collegiate eligibility. Therefore, the purpose of this program is to provide a comprehensive, positive and supportive environment that prepares emerging elite long distance runners for their highest performance ability in the coming years.  Toward that end, the program provides an optimal training environment as well as the guidance and support necessary to gradually yet progressively develop the skills required for world-class performances in long distance running.
