Working with Sam has completely transformed my running! In just a few months, I went from casually running 3 miles a few times a week to easily tackling 7-8 miles on trails.
The combination of running and strength training has made me feel stronger than ever.
I love how Sam tailors my training to fit my schedule, adapts workouts when needed, and still challenges me to improve.
Whether adjusting for minor injuries or my weekly activities, she ensures every session is the perfect fit. Beyond the training itself, her passion for running and genuine support for my goals are truly inspiring.

The class I took with Sam was so fun and encouraging! I came in doubtful of my own skills, but she helped me work through my fears and discover my strength. Her support and energy made all the difference—I left feeling confident and excited to keep going!

Working with Sam has been a mega game-changer for my running. Despite juggling a wild and unpredictable schedule, she’s helped me become faster, stronger, and more confident in my abilities. Her science-backed approach to training ensures that every workout has purpose, and her deep knowledge of physiology and fueling has transformed the way I prepare, fuel and recover from effort.
What really sets her apart, though, is her positive, encouraging energy. She meets me where I’m at—whether I’m lacing up for intervals or heading out for a mountain bike ride or ski day—and supports the full spectrum of my athletic life. She understands the joy in movement, no matter the form, and keeps my training aligned with both performance and passion.
I’m beyond excited to have her in my corner as I prepare for upcoming mountain races. With her expertise and unwavering support, I truly feel like I’m chasing my full potential—and loving every step of the journey.
