In my running career I have competed for Canada for over 20
years on the National team. During that time I learned to
embrace the sport of running. I learnt so much from my long time
coach Mike Lonergan about patience, consistency and goal
setting, that pretty much all my running goals have been met.
I now love running each day in the same way, but I am more
focused on fitness and helping others learn how to make running
their own, to set and meet their own personal goals.
In addition to Pells
Running Clinic, I am now coaching at the
Royal City Track
Club, which was started by Mike Lonergan and where I trained
for many years. It is very special to me and it feels good
to give back to the club in this way.*
Anything is possible if you are patient and consistent in what
you do.
Dream big and enjoy each run.
