Hi, I am glad you are here and looking into coaching. What a crazy time we are in with races cancelled, everything going Virtual and not a clear path forward.
A little bit about me. I started running marathons in 2005, with the goal of “finishing”. Well, I caught the bug as some would say and I have since run 12 Marathons and have reached my goal of getting “sub 3”, three times and even have a PR of 2:52!
I have been coaching both teams and individuals for over 10 years. I have coached runners of all abilities and have gotten many to reach their goals to “BQ”! I have a passion for helping runners achieve their big goals. I have a mom-like focus now of making sure to keep runner’s injury free and promise to not build too soon.
I too planned on doing Boston this year but will be doing the Virtual Option and would love to teach you what I know.

I attribute my success to my top 5 things:
- Being a dedicated runner – I truly have enjoyed this journey of making running a daily/weekly thing I just do, for over 15 years. It isn’t always easy, but 99.9% of the time it’s worth it.
- Coaching – I have had some great coaches that have helped me achieve greatness in a systematic challenging, yet attainable plan.
- Community – I have had some really great friends I have met through the years and having a group to hold you accountable as well as friendly competition amongst them.
- Nutrition – Through the years, I have learned about what to put in my body, when and how much. Fun Fact: I have made a veggie/fruit/protein smoothie nearly every single day for 8 years.
- Long term – I have a macro approach. Having run while single, then married and pregnant, post-partum, busy work schedules, moving and now a prime 41 year old Master’s Runner, I have found what it takes to be a runner for life without burnout.
