Track Miles Run
Athlete Recruiting Profile & Brand Platform · trackmilesrun.com · 2024–2026
Project Overview

TrackMilesRun is a custom collegiate athlete recruiting profile and brand site built for a competitive track and field athlete. It serves as both a digital resume for college coaches and a personal brand platform — featuring a PR record wall, drill and workout library, video gallery of training sessions, a Stripe-powered merchandise store, an athlete blog, and a contact funnel for coaching inquiries. The design is custom and sport-specific, built to stand out in a recruiting landscape dominated by generic platforms. Demonstrates the ability to build multi-vertical, conversion-focused custom sites outside the tech/SaaS space.
