Favorite part of being a Trainer: Cliche as it may sound, my favorite part of being an Endurance/Running trainer is making a difference. My goal is to not only help novice and experienced runners but also of those who fall in between. I want to help the individual who never considered themself a runner to experience that running isn’t just about being fast or running for a long distance. For the faster runner, I want to make a difference in helping them to become more efficient on their runs; becoming even faster. Learning to love to run is different for all of us; my desire is to help you to find joy in running. If in some way, I can help someone to meet, or even exceed their expectations of what their running goals are to them, (even if it’s just to start running), then, I know I’ve made a difference. It’s all about being better than yesterday…and that looks different for all of us.
