Cross a passion for endurance running, optimism, gritty determination and inspiring others- that’s what you’ll find in me. A former high school track and cross country athlete, and endurance runner for over 25 years, I ran my first ultra at age 41 and three months later ran my first 50 miler. Bitten by the “ultra bug” is an understatement! I am a UESCA certified Ultra Running Coach and am currently working towards a Nutrition Certification. I love using my passion to help others achieve their goals, whether it’s working towards their first ultra, or their twentieth. Every runner is unique and helping them is a rewarding experience. Aside from being a coach and ultra runner, I also wear the hats of being a business owner, trail race director, mother and spouse. I know what it’s like to juggle a busy schedule while finding time to train. I can help you maximize the quality of your time spent running, so you can enjoy all the other things life has to offer.
