About Dani

Running is one of the best things I've done for myself, mentally and physically. I've come a long way from running my first 5K (20 years ago), to marathon running, to becoming a certified running coach. Sharing my knowledge of and love for (obsession with?!) running with others is what I do best.

Aside from my running and coaching life, I am also a wife and mom of two kids & a dog, passionate adventure traveller (who always finds cool places to run in random parts of the world), snow and water sports enthusiast, and all around YOLOer.

Coaching Philosophy

I believe that running is a form of physical meditation. It clears your mind, helps you feel good about yourself, allows you to feel strong and accomplished... and that there's nothing quite like the feeling of finishing a long run or runner’s high. My approach is serious, but I don't take myself too seriously and want you to have fun on your running journey.

My coaching is tailored to your needs and goals. Let's figure out your running goals together. From there, I can assess your running form, biomechanics, and heart rate zones, and provide you with key takeaways. I create training plans in a dynamic coaching app that matches your goals, fitness level, heart rate zones and schedule. I’m with you along the way to motivate and hold you accountable, update your plan, answer questions, run with you, provide advice on cross training and nutrition, and help you crush goals!
