“I am 42-years-old and only have a few marathon seasons to reach my goal before the cutoff – so I wanted a coach that would take my training seriously and be thoughtful and strategic about the approach,” said Karen. “I knew Tim was the perfect person for the task!”
This past weekend Karen showed some urgency at CIM moving closer to the OTQ with a new PR in 2:49:17. [Full Results] She ran negative splits progressively getting faster the entire race. Her last 5k was actually her fastest of the day (6:29/mi).
Afterwards, Karen gave credit to her coach, “I have adapted to the mileage and the paces and as a result I feel really strong in my workouts. He’s helped me not only find a new gear, but he’s also really helped me to pace better and finish races feeling strong, but not leaving anything on the table either.”
