About Sonny Ta

Sonny Ta is an experienced distance runner and coach. From 2013-2019, Sonny coached the Ladue and Clayton youth running programs through Runner2Runner. During that period, he caught the running bug himself after helping so many athletes learn the sport, including coaching his three kids, Madeleine, Lily, and Carter!

Sonny has accomplished several personal feats in this sport including a sub 1:25 half marathon, an 18-minute 5k, and completing multiple marathons in different states.

However, his biggest accomplishment of them all has been the leadership and guidance he has brought to so many of his peers and training partners.

He's a very valuable member of Spewak Training's staff and assists with all of the in-person and virtual running events we put on. He was the first-ever athlete coached by Mark Spewak before Spewak Training existed and has been an integral part in the brand's near decade success. You can find Sonny at future Spewak Training events and in Forest Park!
