MEET THE FOUNDERS
Michaela + Erin
We are RRCA-certified run coaches who both found our love and passion for running by "accident." From non-runners to now multiple-time marathoners, we are confident we will hold the space for you to share your big, scary goals, push you to be a stronger, better, faster athlete, and help you conquer whatever running goals you are working toward!
