“Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but we rather have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.” - Aristotle

Personalized Coaching for All Athletes"My goal is always to guide my athletes down the path to becoming what I call 'mature' (or competent) runners. By that I mean autonomous individuals with the tools to deal with different, sometimes unexpected, situations and the ability and discipline to direct themselves when the time comes to do that. Feeling strong and able to deal with the unexpected is always the aim, and with that PRs usually come along for the ride."
You live a full life - full of work, family, passions - LIFE. The balance is not always easy to find. Training must work with your life, your whole life. You may want to improve on a PR, run your first marathon, run farther or faster than you ever have or simply want to get fit for a longer, fuller life? A running coach can to help motivate you and keep you accountable so you can achieve your goals while staying injury free! Being part of a like minded community also also inspires us to reach for the best we have in ourselves. As an experienced runner and certified running coach, I can help you run faster and longer using proven science-based coaching methods, while motivating you to push harder and keep going when things get tough. A training program based on your personal fitness level, goals and unique life circumstances will be more effective than a cookie-cutter plan downloaded from the Internet. Plus, the additional benefits of injury and nutrition advice, speedwork assistance, motivation and other factors greatly influence your success. |
