The best marathon I’ve ever run!
Hot and super hard course but I was consistent and in control the entire race! I started working with Barbara in October of 2022 in an effort to build my endurance in the marathon distance. After a thorough review of my diet and fueling strategy, she quickly put together an updated game plan incorporating a new diet, hydration and fueling protocol. After a few weeks of implementing these changes into my various workouts, she then dialed in a complete pre-race and race day strategy. Her strategies helped me run even splits with no “wall.” Having never before had a strong second half, by following her plan, I finished strong on a difficult course under far less than ideal conditions. Barbara is an absolute wealth of knowledge, and I credit her with my success. She will be instrumental in continuing to mentor me in my nutrition and fitness goals.
I have been working with Barbara for a few months and I’m so happy with the communication and the results. She has me on a program that has put me in the best shape I have ever been, I turn 60 this week and feel like I am 30. If you’re looking for someone to help elevate your overall physical being give Barbara a call you will not be disappointed.
