Our Story

Empowering today's youth to emerge as exemplary citizens and accomplished athletes of tomorrow is our foremost objective. Our dedicated mission revolves around nurturing each athlete's innate potential, fostering resilience, fortitude, self-assurance, unwavering discipline, personal responsibility, and the attainment of athletic aspirations.

We instill within our budding athletes a profound appreciation for positive mindsets, sportsmanship of the highest order, and reverence for self and others alike. At Legacy Runners Athletic Elite Track Club, we serve as the crucible for molding the next wave of triumphant athletes. Comprising entirely of volunteers, our coaches and staff share a singular aspiration: to guide the youth of today towards becoming sterling citizens and prospective athletic luminaries. Endorsed by both USATF and AAU, Legacy Runners operates as a 501c3 accredited youth track and field club. Conceived in 2009 by the visionary Head Coach Zontavius Johnson and his spouse Joi Johnson, our club was conceived with a vision of fostering a close-knit, family-oriented athletic platform. Our ethos centers on cultivating athleticism, fostering the development of competitive character, and nurturing unwavering discipline.
