New NSAF sponsor ElliptiGO helps Great Oaks, CA build distance dynasty

by Steve Underwood


Elliptical bikes from ElliptiGO -- a new NSAF sponsor we have welcomed recently and which will be on hand at NBNI -- have played a big role in helping Great Oak High School build a distance-running dynasty in Temecula, California.  Doug Soles, head coach of both the boys' and girls' teams, employs the ElliptiGO bikes as an integral element of training.

Soles originally purchased a pair of ElliptiGO 8C bikes in 2014 to help injured runners in their recovery, but also discovered the bikes are equally effective with injury prevention.

“The main reason we wanted [the bikes] was to give kids that were having physical issues a chance to keep training during their recovery from injury, and the ElliptiGOs give us a great chance to do that,” Soles said.

Soles' teams have won back-to-back CIF California state division I titles, with his boys' team following up by winning national honors in Portland. His girls' team has finished 2nd and 3rd nationally the past two years, as well. The USTFCCCA named him California coach of the year for both boys and girls, and the NHSCA honored Soles nationally.
