I’ve been training with Coach Jeanine for the past seven months, and the results have been nothing short of incredible. Under her guidance, I’ve achieved four personal records (PRs), which is a testament to her expertise, dedication, and personalized approach to coaching.
What truly sets Jeanine apart is her deep understanding of not just the physical aspects of running, but also the mental and emotional elements that contribute to success. She takes the time to get to know me as an individual—understanding my goals, challenges, and strengths—and uses that insight to create training plans that are both effective and sustainable. She's also provided me with invaluable resources on strength training, fueling, and overall nutrition, all of which have contributed to my progress.
Beyond her expertise, Jeanine’s empathy and kindness are what truly make her a standout coach. She’s always patient, compassionate, and genuinely invested in my progress. Her support goes far beyond just the workouts. Jeanine has helped me build confidence, push through mental barriers, and maintain a positive mindset, even during tough times. Whether I’m facing challenges (in or outside of running) or celebrating a PR, she’s always there with encouragement, feedback, and thoughtful advice to keep me moving forward.
In the past several months, I’ve seen dramatic improvements in my performance, and I couldn’t have asked for a better coach to guide me on this journey. I’m incredibly grateful for her expertise, support, and unwavering commitment to helping me become the best runner I can be.

If you’re looking for a coach who is knowledgeable, supportive, kind, and results-driven, I can’t recommend Jeanine enough! I can’t wait to set my new goals with her for 2025.
