Primal Movement

Hey there, fellow runners, triathletes and fitness enthusiast’s! Welcome to my blog, where I’ll be sharing my journey from a beginner runner to a certified personal trainer and run coach. I’m excited to share my experiences, tips, and training ideas with you, as you embark on your own fitness journey.

My Story:

It all started with the birth of my son. I wanted to be a good example for him, and I knew I needed to get fitter. So, I laced up my running shoes and started running. It wasn’t easy, but I pushed through the pain and self-doubt, and I completed my first marathon. Encouraged by my success, I decided to take on an even bigger challenge: my first ultra-marathon.

But, let’s be real, I had no idea what I was getting myself into. I had no training plan, no idea how to fuel my body, and no support system. I learned the hard way that running 78 miles is not for the faint of heart. But, I didn’t give up. I wanted to learn how to train and race properly, so I became a personal trainer and then a run coach for my local triathlon club.

Why Coaching:

Coaching has been a game-changer for me. I love seeing my clients achieve their goals, whether it’s completing their first 5K or qualifying for a triathlon. There’s nothing more rewarding than helping someone push through their limits and reach their full potential. I’ve learned so much about training, nutrition, and mental toughness, and I can’t wait to share that knowledge with you.

In upcoming blogs, I’ll be sharing tips, training ideas, and information on a variety of subjects, including:

* How to set and achieve your running and triathlon goals

* Training plans for beginners and advanced athletes

* Nutrition and fueling strategies for endurance athletes

* Mental toughness and mindset training

* Race day strategies and tactics

I’m excited to embark on this journey with you, and I hope you’ll join me every step of the way. Remember, the journey to fitness and success is not always easy, but it’s worth it. So, decide, commit, and succeed! Safe training, and see you on the trails and in the gym!
