Meet Amanda

I was not a fan of running in high school though I played many sports and ran winter track all four years.

I ran my first half marathon in 2013 solely to earn the "13.1" magnet for my car.

A decade later, I've run 15 half marathons, 12 marathons, and qualified as a Marathon Maniac.

I began a running career late in life. At the ripe age of 58 I began running, strength training, and embracing all exercising. I discovered the joys of feeling fit and from there I was hooked. Now, I want to coach older individuals and help them understand anyone can start running anytime.
