Coaching Philosophy

At This Blonde Runs Coaching, my philosophy centers on a customized, personal approach designed to bring out the best in every athlete. I believe that true progress starts with open communication, mutual trust, and a shared commitment to growth.

My mission is not only to help athletes achieve their goals but also to elevate the running community by making education a cornerstone of the coaching process. Every athlete I work with is guided to become more knowledgeable, confident, and self-sufficient by understanding the why behind their training, nutrition, and recovery.

Through regular checkpoints and honest feedback, I assess progress, help to refine goals, and adjust training as needed to stay aligned with evolving needs. I emphasize training as a lifestyle, one that integrates smart nutrition, sustainable habits, and a strong mindset to enhance both performance and overall well-being.

Ultimately, my goal is to empower athletes with the tools, education, and confidence to succeed long-term—on race day, and far beyond it.
