My name is Maria Paula Forero, I 33 years old from Colombia. I am an industrial Engineer and recently became a Running Coach in 2023. I have more than 7+ year experience in amateur running and cycling, and have participated in several half marathons, 10k, and Marathons in Colombia and the US. I am a strong believer that many times sports are about trial and error, and I always try to test on me what I recommend to my athletes. During these years I have gained experience in female metabolism, sports nutrition, injury recovery/injury prevention, cross training and strength training for runners.
I believe that Running requires a holistic approach to be sustainable and part of a women's lifestyle. My personal experience has taught me that female athletes have different needs to male runners, and that definitively one-size doesn't fit all. Having a personalized and holistic approach, where you asses nutrition, strength training, mental training, female cycle and other wellness aspects, will allow athletes reach their maximal potencial and more important, find happiness and balance in their running path.
