Danny Mackey has been the coach of the Brooks Beasts now for nearly a decade. We have met with Danny on several occasions and enjoyed our conversations. Danny is a wonderful example of the coaches in our sport, from high school to college to elite level, who care about their athletes and know that, in the end, the medals are one in the details.

Danny Mackey has been the coach at Brooks Beasts since its founding in 2013. Danny is a coach who continues to evolve and is looking to make himself a better coach.

Danny spoke to RunBlogRun just after a team workout. Mackey told us that Brooks Beasts took off for about ten weeks due to the pandemic in the spring of 2020.

This is clip 1, and Danny Mackey explains a typical coaching day as he oversees the Brooks Beasts Track Club.

Special thanks to Mike Deering for managing and producing the video. Special thanks to Danny Mackey.
