Finish Line Coaching Services

I wanted to take some time to talk about life... and curveballs it throws you while working on a goal or training plan. You find yourself excited for a goal and ready to start training and maybe you get a good way into your training plan... then BAM! Life happens... maybe an injury, illness, or something else gets in your way of your training and derails your momentum. During this process maybe you lost your motivation to get back out there or you feel like you have lost all of the progress made... How do you overcome this?

Personally I have been rocked this year really hard by personal medical issues, death of family
Pets, hurricanes, and job loss ( I literally couldn't make up the year I have had).... but never the less, I'm registered for some big things coming up so I have to get back out there. That first work out back or first run back can feel
Intimating or daunting- but I promise you... you will feel so accomplished and so much better once it gets done... The motivation and excitement will come back. I started looking forward to my next race-cation and planning what will come during that trip which got my butt into gear-

What do you do to get out of the funk?!
The running community is such an amazing support commmnity to be a part of... let's all be there for eachother and build eachother up!

Let's talk about training through the curve balls that life throws at you.... maybe it's a change in schedule, injury, change in physical health or something else...

How do you handle the change? What do you do to adapt to the new hurdles?

Approaching a new race season... what is on your wish list/ schedule/ agenda?
I have already started training for mine... have you?!

Lets talk training cycles... I am currently finding myself about to enter a large training cycle after taking some much needed time off for rest and recovery. Sometimes starting over from 'scratch' can be daunting and intimidating but believe it or not, muscle memory is a thing. Often times you come back stronger and better than you did before! Not to mention, if you are feeling burnt out, its good to take a break so that you can miss what you once loved and began to maybe...dare I say...hate or dread?

Who is about to start a new training cycle? Maybe a fall marathon? Maybe a big challenge series like I am training for? Maybe a couch to 5K for your first Turkey Trot. Whatever your goals are, I am here to help you achieve your best finish line! Feel free to shoot me a message with any questions or concerns you have regarding your training or goals coming up :)

Dont forget, Everyone's finish line looks different but every finish line is worthy of a celebration!

Just finished another bucket list race! The cherry blossom double challenge in Washington DC was amazing! 5k Saturday, 10 miler Sunday and a lot of scenic views....

What are your bucket list races?!

Good afternoon runners!
I am gearing up for the Rock N Roll half in Vegas this coming weekend and Cherry Blossom in April. What do you guys have going on?

Also if you could share or recommend my coaching services to anyone who might be interested, I would be so grateful.

Heading to the Rock n Roll half Las Vegas next month.... who else is going? What are your goals?

Recovery is a huge part of training. Sometimes it may be a welcomed break and other times hard to follow the rest schedule (guilty). What does recovery look like for you?

Just got home from an amazing RunDisney weekend! 39.3 miles in 2 days for the Goofy challenge 🙂

Let's get you across the finish line!

Happy 2024! Let's talk resolutions and goals for 2024 and how FLCS can help you!

What is on your 2024 race calendar so far?

What are you registered for? What are you hoping to register for? What are your bucket list items? Any time goals?

Let Finish Line Coaching Services help you reach your best finish line.

Training around the Holidays can be stressful due to time restraints, family commitments, traveling and other things that come up. How are you planning on handling your training through the Holidays? Sometimes it better for a mental reset to take a day or two, slow down, and enjoy the time with the Family. You will come back feeling refreshed, mentally clear and ready to tackle the next stages of your training!
Lets talk about your goals!

Training Tip Tuesday:
Having the right shoe for you makes the world of difference. Try going to a running store near you and have them fit you for your perfect running shoe. Alot of running stores have specialist that will help you find the right fit while running on a treadmill, any inserts needed or the right shoe size. Believe it or not but my running shoes are different sizes than my normal shoes or sneakers.

Motivational Monday!

Motivation is a huge part of the training process. Part of training is understanding your "why".

What is motivating you to reach your finish line? What has motivated you to start running?

I began my running journey in High School while participating in the JROTC program but never really enjoyed it because it felt forced. Later when I began working as a Child Protective Investigator I fell in love with running because it was a way to relieve some stress that I was experiencing at work. Once I learned that running could be fun, I decided to run my first half marathon and the rest is history :)

The biggest hurdle is having the courage to start! Let Finish Line Coaching Services help you reach your Finish Line goals!

We can build custom training plans for specific goals, general running fitness, specific race distances and more! Send an email to [email protected] today to get started!

When was the last time you put yourself first? I often struggle with putting my needs first as it comes naturally as a mother and wife to put others needs ahead of my own. Taking the time and effort to invest in myself has in turn made me a better mother, partner, friend, and person as a whole.
What are you waiting for? Now is the time to invest in yourself!
