Science-Based Coaching for All Abilities

  by Nicole Hunt

Testimonial: "Here's what you have done for me!  In the space of about a year I have gone from a world class sofa-spud who hadn't even run across the street in 18 years to a finisher in the Bridger Ridge Run!!  Yes, and not only did I beat my original goal of 8 hours, or my later amended goal 7 hours, I pushed the goal up to 6 hours and beat that by over 2 minutes at an official 5:57:55.  I could go on and on about the experience, but I'd be up all night typing.  So far, besides the birth of my children, it has been the highlight of my life.  Thanks for helping me achieve that."

Your customized training schedule, running specific weight and plyometric programs will incorporate the latest scientific research, my own personal experiences that have worked best for me and numerous other recreational and elite athletes and what I learned from training with the Olympians.
