About Lacy

My name is Lacy & I'm a 39-year-old mother of two boys- 6&8 years old. I've been married to my husband for 9 years & he's to blame for my love & obsession with running. I'm a born & raised Midwestern gal, currently living in Iowa. I love to run & read, so I read a lot about running. I signed up for my first 100k before I even completed my first marathon, & I signed up for my first 6-day stage race before I even completed my first ultra. I love a challenge & having something that is seemingly impossible to work towards. I am also 4 years sober, which I celebrate with running!

Coaching Philosophy

My coaching philosophy is very client focused. As a mother with young children, I'm acutely aware of time restraints & that sometimes life happens. I work with my clients to develop the best schedule to fit their lives & try to be as honest as possible with what I think my clients are capable of accomplishing. I believe training is not just running what is scheduled, but rather a whole-body & whole-mind lifestyle.
