I knew of Jennifer through a mutual friend, as an amazing runner with really fast race times.  As a serious runner myself, I was impressed and hoped that she could help me improve my race times as well.  Jennifer met me at a local track where she came prepared with pre-planned interval training/track repeat workouts that were designed to help me achieve a specific finish time for an upcoming half marathon.  She also coached me on race strategy and how to approach races mentally – she explained that physical ability is only one element of successful racing.  As well, she refined my strength training program.  I really enjoyed working with Jennifer, especially her passion for running, and her belief in my ability to improve.
