Professional Running Coaching

Personalized training plans designed to help you achieve your running goals, from your first 5K to Boston Marathon qualification.

Tailored Training for Every Runner

Whether you're training for your first 5K or chasing a Boston Marathon qualifier, I create personalized training plans that adapt to your schedule, fitness level, and goals. As a Truckee High School cross country and track coach with years of competitive and coaching experience, I understand what it takes to help athletes reach their full potential.

Who I Work With

My coaching is designed for runners at all levels who are serious about improvement. I work with beginners building their first running base, intermediate runners chasing PRs, competitive athletes targeting Boston qualification times, trail runners preparing for mountain races, and masters athletes optimizing performance while managing recovery.

Training Approach

My coaching philosophy centers on sustainable progress through science-based training principles. Each plan is customized to your current fitness level, available training time, and specific race goals. I emphasize proper running form and biomechanics, periodized training that balances stress and recovery, strategic race preparation and pacing, and mental preparation for race day success.
