This running club originated in the East Bay of the San Francisco Bay Area. It was founded by Tony Casillas that’s me in the 70s for relay races and team races. The name comes from a group called Tower of Power, who were an east bay band.
I’ve formed running groups over the years and coached high school and college in the Bay Area. I began working on road race training. I also began working with master runners. I coach endurance racers, marathoners, 10k, 5k, and milers.
My basic philosophy is mind and body working together. I believe mental aspect as important as workouts. I try to complement my runners interests. I continue to learn and develop about workouts and running.
The club trains in sugar house park and on highland high school track. All ages and abilities male and female welcome. Workouts are held Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday at approximately 4:30pm. I run all workouts adapting to individual needs.
Intervals 400-2400.
If you enjoy cross country style training and coaching, I’m your guy. My job in order to coach was as a high school and middle school counselor. I now just coach.
