Coaches

The coaches who run camp

Three coaches run the first sprint, the relays and the long jump line, and they stay on the track through every block.

    Revathi coached school track teams before she started Baton. She plans every week, runs the first sprint on Monday and answers the camp phone herself.

    Shanti leads the relay blocks and the baton hand-offs, and teaches every group the same way: walk it, jog it, then run it.
