From Your First Mile to the Finish Line
I’m an ISSA-Certified Running Coach who started running in 2018 after losing over 180 pounds. I help runners build consistency, confidence, and fitness through simple, personalized training — delivered online through Final Surge.
Who This Coaching Is For
New Runners
You’re just getting started or coming back after time away. You want structure, encouragement, and a plan that builds confidence — not pressure.
5K to Marathon Runners
You’ve run races before but want more consistency, smarter training, and guidance tailored to your goals, schedule, and experience.
Runners Who Want Support
You don’t need elite-level training — you want accountability, clarity, and someone in your corner who understands real-life constraints.
New to Running? Start Here.
If you’re brand new to running or returning after a long break, you don’t need to jump straight into coaching.
I’ve created a free 12-week Couch to 5K plan designed to help you build consistency and confidence — safely, and without pressure.
How Coaching Works
1. Apply & Get Matched
Start by filling out a short application so I can understand your goals, experience, and schedule. This helps ensure we’re a good fit and that I can support you properly.
2. Train with a Personalized Plan
You’ll receive a personalized training plan delivered through Final Surge (free for athletes). Your workouts are tailored to your goals, current fitness, and real-life constraints.
3. Get Support & Adjust Along the Way
We’ll track your progress, adjust training as needed, and keep things sustainable. Most coaching cycles run 8–12 weeks, with flexibility based on your goals and race schedule.
Why I Coach
I didn’t start running because I was fast — I started running because I needed my life back.
In 2018, I began running after losing over 180 pounds. What started as a way to move and stay consistent slowly turned into something bigger: confidence, discipline, and a belief that progress doesn’t have to be extreme to be meaningful.
Since then, I’ve run everything from 5Ks to the marathon distance, and I’ve learned that the most sustainable training plans are the ones built around real people with real schedules. That’s why I became an ISSA-Certified Running Coach — to help others build fitness in a way that’s supportive, realistic, and sustainable.
