Ep 197: The Coach’s Eye. What the Best Coaches Notice That Others Miss — with Sean Brosnan
Wednesday, 4 February, 2026
The best coaches don’t just follow programs — they see things. They can watch a runner jog in warm-up and know when today’s session needs to change. They read belief, energy, confidence, and tension —not just splits and data. In this episode, I sit down with Sean Brosnan — best known for transforming Newbury Park High School into a US powerhouse — to go deep into the craft of coaching. We talk about:• the coach’s eye — what great coaches notice that others miss• why belief often matters more than the workout• learning through apprenticeships and curiosity• building culture and energy• why great coaching lives between art + science. Sean’s book, Beyond Fast (co-written with Chris Lear), was what really pulled me back into his story. It’s not a program — it’s a look into how great coaches think, observe, and adapt. I couldn’t put it down. If you enjoyed this episode:• grab a copy of Beyond Fast• follow Sean on Instagram @therealseanbrosnan• and keep an eye on the pro team he’s beginning to build in Flagstaff — a long-term project that’ll be fascinating to watch unfold over the coming years.
