Coaching is not simply writing a workout and sending on its merry way. It is the coach's responsibility to help you set realistic, obtainable goals, devise a plan to help you achieve those goals and do so without compromising your health and well being.

My first love in sport was soccer, I played competitively at the collegiate level. After college I completed the triple crown of long distance trails. After hiking 20-50 miles in a day I figured it would be just as much fun to run those distances too. I now have raced everything from a mile to 100k.
