Get Expert Insight Into Your Running — Exactly Where You Need It
Focused, one-on-one coaching sessions for runners who want clarity around strength, form, recovery, or injury return .
This Page Is for You If…
You’re serious about your running — but you don’t necessarily want a personal coach right now.
Maybe you:
train with a run club you love
want expert input on one specific issue
are coming back from injury and want a smart re-entry
know something’s off, but don’t want to guess
These sessions are designed to plug into your current training, not replace it.
Think of this as precision coaching — delivered exactly when it matters most.

Skill Sessions
Strength that supports your mileage — not competes with it
If you’ve ever wondered what strength work you actually need, this is the session runners come back for.
We assess how your body moves, identify where strength will help most, and coach you through exercises that improve performance without leaving you trashed for your next run.
Best for:
Runners building durability, chasing PRs, or tired of guessing in the gym
Includes:
Movement screening (hips, ankles, core, gait patterns)
Runner-specific strength prescription
Hands-on coaching for form and loading
Take-home plan you can repeat confidently
For runners navigating common setbacks — and ready to move forward
This session is designed for runners dealing with common overuse issues who want to keep moving — or return to running — with a plan that makes sense for their body right now. We focus on how your body responds to training, where load needs adjusting, and what to change so running feels more predictable again.
Common reasons runners book this
IT band irritation
Plantar fasciitis–type heel or foot pain
Achilles tightness or flare-ups
Knee pain that shows up with mileage
Setbacks that appear when training volume increases
What we work on
Understanding training and movement patterns that may be contributing
Adjusting load without unnecessary shutdowns
Strength and mobility that support resilient running
A clear, realistic return-to-run progression you can follow independently
This isn’t about stopping everything — or pushing through blindly.
It’s about leaving with clarity, confidence, and a smarter path forward.
Recover better. Stay consistent. Keep running.
Recovery should actually help your training — not just feel good for five minutes.
These sessions focus on practical mobility, soft tissue work, and recovery strategies that fit your mileage and lifestyle, especially for high-volume and masters runners.
Best for:
Runners who want longevity, not just the next race
Includes:
Run-specific mobility flow
Soft tissue techniques and tools
Recovery planning around weekly mileage
Education on easy days, sleep, and fueling timing
