My Mission
To improve access to coaching in endurance and ultra-endurance sports.
To work in partnership with athletes to help them get what they want to out of the sport, whether that is enjoyment, camaraderie, competition, health, or something else.
To pursue excellence as a coach, athlete, and member of society myself.
I offer virtual coaching for athletes preparing for races in trail and ultra running, triathlon, and other endurance sports. Learn more about my methodology here or just reach out!
You have created an aerobic monster, I’m a vert machine.
I began my marathon journey in January and feel so lucky to be working with Serena! Bi-weekly conversations with her have been really helpful in developing my technique, strength, and resistance to injury. Each week, she sends me a detailed plan for my runs or run-adjacent workouts, with pre- and post-run exercises to help activate the muscles I should be engaging. And she has kept me inspired to keep pursuing my marathon goal, even through weeks where I lacked the motivation on my own. Thank you, Serena!!!!
I’d always been a super casual runner, so I had no idea what it’d be like to seriously train for a race and work with a coach. Serena totally exceeded my expectations — she helped me understand the “why” behind different workouts and was super responsive to adapting the schedule when needed. I was afraid that taking running more seriously would take the fun out of it, but if anything, working with Serena just gave me a greater appreciation for the sport and all the time I spend doing it.
