Personal Development and achievements:
Growing up in the world of sports I have always been a driven athlete and very competitive. That has translated to other areas in my life as I have become a coach! I have coached group fitness for the 5 years and counting as well as recently been training 1v1 and girls grade school cross country back in my home town. I've learned so much more since becoming a coach and diving deeper into the power of knowledge AND experience.
My first marathon I finished 3:45:31 back in 2022. That was done with consistent training with lower mileage, and I was ecstatic! After becoming RRCA certified as well as playing around with high volume training mixed with strength conditioning I was able to set a new PR of 3:10:13 as of 2024. Whether your training for a 5K or Ultra just know goals take time. They are a process and journey you may have to experiment with and adjust as you find what does and doesn't work for you. That's where coaching comes into play and takes the extra guesswork out of it. As a coach, I have a coach to keep me accountable and bounce ideas off of as well as have a conversation about the results I am seeing. If your looking to improve your routine, want accountability, or ready to crush some serious goals... I am 100% here to guide you in the right direction!
