A note from Coach Misty: 

In a world where elite athletes often capture the spotlight, it's easy to forget that the heart of running beats strongest in the everyday heroes. I'm talking about you – the real men and women who balance the demands of families, careers, and life's many stresses, yet still have the desire to lace up those running shoes. Whether you're aiming to conquer your first mile, train for a significant event, or simply find a slice of time to call your own, I see you, I understand you, and I'm here for you.

I'm not an elite coach for elite athletes. Instead, I pride myself on being the people's coach – someone who gets that life doesn't pause just because you have a training session scheduled. I understand that some days, your best run might be chasing after your kids or sprinting through your to-do list. And that's okay. Because when you do find the time to run, those moments are precious, and they deserve to be celebrated and maximized.

Winning races or earning prize money might not be in our journey, but what we gain from running is invaluable. Health, improved mood, confidence, and the sheer satisfaction of achieving personal goals – these are our trophies. These are the victories we chase. And as your coach, I'm not just here to help you cross finish lines; I'm here to support you in weaving running into the tapestry of your real, beautifully complex life.

So to all the real people out there – the ones juggling a million things and still daring to dream about starting or continuing their running journey – let's do this together. Let's make your running goals a reality, not by sidelining the rest of your life, but by integrating your training in a way that uplifts and empowers you in everything you do.

I am the coach for the real runner. The runner who runs not just with their legs, but with their heart, spirit, and all the roles they embody. Let's celebrate your determination, resilience, and passion. Let's redefine what success looks like, one real, achievable step at a time. Together, we can unlock the version of yourself you're proud to be – a runner who's winning at life, one stride at a time.

Join me, and let's embark on this journey together. Because real people deserve real coaching – and that's exactly what you'll find here with me.

Yours in running and in life,
Coach Misty
