““After a stress fracture took me out of marathon training, Jake not only got me running again, but he coached me to become a stronger and healthier athlete.””
““Aging as an athlete can be physically and emotionally taxing- especially if you have injuries and goals! Working with someone who understands this dynamic is so important. Jake has an excellent balance of knowledge, kindness and is super responsive. Since working together I’m getting stronger and remembering why I love running””
