Why Hire A Coach?

NOT JUST FOR ELITES ANYMORE

Can't I just use a training plan I found online?

You can absolutely see success in your running by simply running more, plan or not, but the question is "WILL YOU?" By hiring a coach, you are not only getting customized pacing and mileage unique to YOU, you're also getting a plan that adapts as you get stronger. Most people have no clue what potential they hold, and a coach can help you realize that potential and support you through the growth.

How much time does it take?

Is the time going to pass anyways? This is a complex question, but the time to achieve any goal can vary wildly. We'll start by discussing what you want to accomplish on a free consultation call. If we both agree we're a good fit for working together, we'll proceed with goal specificity and begin discussing a timeline. The length of training plan will likely be dictated by a goal race, but can also be determined based on current fitness level and how much time is needed for improvement. Most training plans are a minimum of 12 weeks and can stretch out as far as 26.

I don't think I'm fast enough to need a coach. Am I too slow or out of shape?

I hear some form of the statement, "I'm too slow/inexperienced/old" to hire a coach all the time, and my answer is always the same: ANY BODY can run! If you've ever been to a race, chances are you've seen people of all shapes and sizes and walks of life, and that's one of my favorite things about it. Anyone who wants to achieve a goal in this realm absolutely can! Step 1 is hiring a knowledgable coach to help you achieve it intelligently and safely.

What does a coach do?

As an RRCA Level I certified coach, my first step is to get to know you. Every coach is different, and a good working relationship requires a solid and open coach-athlete relationship. This can take some time to get to know each other to build a rapport, but I can always promise you professionalism. I understand that I am not the perfect coach for everyone, but I am definitely the perfect coach for some! If you want knowledge, accountability, inspiration, empathy, and a little bit of tough love, then I just might be your girl. Let's find out!

Home: Testimonials

"I am a personal trainer and I have been running for well over a decade. I never really saw the need for a run coach until I was in the middle of marathon training. I got sick and started having some setbacks to my training plan. I wasn’t sure what to do to get myself back on track when I contacted Missy. She was a Godsend!! She helped me get back on track quickly with the training plan she sent me. I was feeling strong and confident with her encouragement. She was there for me when I had a silly, or not so silly, questions. Her knowledge of the sport of running helped me to have the confidence I needed- even when I found myself sidelined from running for the last month of my training. Missy kept me on track with a cross training program, which not only allowed me to get across the finish line, but PR by over 30minutes!! If you don’t *think* you really need a run coach, I promise you won’t be disappointed with Missy. It was the BEST investment I made in my training program."
