I’m so grateful for the guidance I received from Kristin during the group nutrition sessions. As a runner, I’ve always understood the importance of fueling my body, but I never quite realized how much of an impact proper nutrition could have on my performance until I worked with Kristin. As runners we all look for quick fixes to improving our performance but sometimes we need to take a good, hard look at ensuring that our daily nutritional needs are met first. The advice shared in our group sessions was not only practical but also tailored to our individual needs, which made it so accessible and effective. I loved learning from other group members, hearing their stories, and learning from their experiences as Kristin shared expert advice for any issues we encountered. I learned how to properly fuel before, during, and after my runs, how to balance macronutrients, and how to stay energized throughout training. Kristin was clear, encouraging, and full of real-life examples, which made it easy to implement into my routine. Since implementing the tips and strategies I’ve learned, I’ve noticed a significant improvement in my energy levels, recovery time, and overall running performance. It was such a valuable experience to learn alongside others in the group and feel supported by someone who truly understands the demands of both running and nutrition. I can’t thank Kristin enough for all the insights I’ve gained and I am so excited to see how these changes impact my next race!

As someone who has run competitively for years, I was lost when it came to nutrition. Each group meeting had just enough information to be helpful and not overwhelming. I felt great during my training and on race day using what I learned during the sessions and I will use what I learned towards my future training cycles and races!

I loved the Spring Marathon Nutrition series! Kristin does an amazing job breaking down complex information into digestible pieces, debunking nutrition myths, and speaking about the ‘why’. The sessions were easy to follow, fun and engaging. The slack group was a great place to ask questions and share tips. It helped to keep my performance fueling at the front of my mind as we progressed through the build up. If you have a goal race and have ever questioned if you were getting the most out of your nutrition or of you’ve ever hit the wall during a race or struggled with an upset stomach running them this is definitely the program for you!

I enjoyed the fall marathon nutrition group. It helped me optimize my nutrition before, during and after the run to improve my performances and recovery throughout the training cycle. I would recommend this program to both new and experienced runners trying to hit their goals.

Thank you for all your help with nutrition! I have no doubt revamping my nutrition regimen helped in this cycle. I ended up running 3:01:22 which was a little off goal, but a great result considering the weather and course!

I'm so glad I took the nutrition course with Kristin to deepen my knowledge of training and race day fueling and hydration. Kristin laid everything out in an easy to understand format so that I could easily apply her recommendations to my everyday life. In addition, I found the race day fueling plan super helpful!
