Andrew Mapp - TruGrit Speed

Andrew Mapp - TruGrit Speed This page is for those athletes that are interested in increasing their speed & explosiveness. Hello and welcome! Ford Sports Performance in Bellevue,WA.

My name is Andrew Mapp, I’m also known as “speedmapps”! I am the Speed Director at a premier sports training facility. I’ve had the pleasure to work with 100’s of high school & collegiate athletes across an array of different sports including soccer, basketball, baseball, football,tennis, and track. As well as, professional athletes including Bobby Wagner, Richard Sherman, Budda Baker, KJ Wright,

Zaire Franklin, Josh Gordon, Boston Scott, Kyler Gordon, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, Daniel Hardy, and Lance McCutcheon from the NFL. Blake Malone from the MLS. Olivia Van der Jagt, and Jordan Thompson from the NWSL

I was born and raised in Boise, Idaho. Growing up I was a very active child. My parents encouraged me and my two older brothers to participate in a slew of sports ranging from gymnastics, tennis, baseball, basketball, and soccer. Later in my adolescence I ventured into football and track. Ultimately track and field took my heart and ran with it. I began my coaching career with my former high school track club, YMCA Team Idaho in the winter of 2009 co-coaching hurdles. That spring in 2010 I was given the opportunity by my now dear friend and mentor, Bryan Stith, to coach hurdles at a local high school (Capital High School). Over a 6 year span from 2010 to 2016 I had the honor to coach 15 State Champions and with those State Champions 6 state records were broken. 5 in Idaho and 1 in Oregon. I relocated to the Seattle area in 2016 and got connected to Tracy Ford at Ford Sports Performance. It’s here where my real journey in training began. I cultivated the skills to be an all around sports performance trainer. From strength training to speed, agility and quickness.

That’s a wrap! What an incredible summer it’s been with Sound Heat Track Club !

This is only the beginning. Sound Heat is just getting started. 🔥 Stay tuned for upcoming fall/winter training announcements and ways to continue leveling up on and off the track.

From chilly Northwest mornings to sweltering Savannah heat, the mission stays the same: have fun, compete, and execute.

This week, the hurdle squad touches down at the 2025 USATF Junior Olympics in Savannah, GA.

Best of luck to & Owen (not pictured)

Just know these kids are bringing the heat to Georgia!

It’s you vs you!

This season, I watched an athlete choose the hard road. Not for glory, not for praise, but for the pursuit of excellence itself. Since the fall, he trained with discipline, intensity, and focus knowing that everything would come down to one moment in late May.

And when that moment came, he didn’t just show up.
He made history!

36.00 in the 300 hurdles! A new 4A Washington State Meet Record!

But here’s the thing: the record is just a byproduct.

He didn’t train for the applause. He trained because he chose to.
Because he believed in sharpening every edge, mastering every step, and honoring the work even when no one was watching.

That’s what makes this special. That’s what makes him special.

Thanks for reminding me that the process is the prize:
You didn’t just run fast you ran fast fast! Lol

Congratulations on a legendary season

To my dogs,

It’s time! 9 weeks spent in the lab together. We began hopping, skipping, exchanging, jumping, sprinting—and yes, sweating—through workout after workout. Day to day, progress felt almost invisible. But week by week, you made tremendous strides—in strength, speed, and confidence—even as focus wavered and doubt, anxiety, and fear crept in.

And then came the jubilation: you showed out at your pro days and turned heads everywhere you went. Teams took notice, and you EARNED every bit of that attention.

As you move into these next crucial months, I pray for your protection and guidance. May you continue to reap the rewards of your relentless effort, and may happiness and joy follow you every step of the way.

Thank you for trusting the process—and for proving what true grit and perseverance can achieve.
