From The Athletes
"I struggle to find the words to express how wonderful it has been working with Coach Rachel. She most certainly knows her craft inside and out and is very patient, but also knows when she needs to push me to get the results. Her passion for the sport of running and compassion for fellow runners and especially her athletes is beyond what I have experienced before and is very inspirational. She has a well detailed and thought-out plan for my training, knowing when to build the mileage and intensity, and when to allow me to recover. I always know that even though my upcoming training may be challenging, Coach is giving me what she knows I can and need to do. She’s quick to answer any questions that I may have regarding my training, nutrition and fueling. If you’re looking for a running coach, look no further! Rachel is AWESOME! Coach Rachel is exactly right, “It’s never too late to begin”!"

"Working with Rachel has been an absolute joy. I had run several races without a coach, but partnering with someone who is so knowledgable, compassionate, and attentive makes SUCH a difference when prepping for a race. With Rachel, I was able to reach new heights with running and forged a friendship with her. She is so understanding, but still pushes me to be better. I had a hard time with a hip injury, and she was right there with me talking it through and encouraging me from her past experiences."

"Working with coach Rachel has been a pleasure, after just getting into running in 2024 and not knowing much about running, I knew hiring a running coach would be really beneficial. Rachel is very knowledgeable when it comes to any questions you may have, she’s offers 24/7 communication with her clients, is flexible with planning weekly workouts if you have something coming up and so much more! She is also very good at scheduling proper mileage, intensity, recovery all in the training plans. I highly recommend giving Coach Rachel an opportunity to help improve your running, rather it be training for races or just overall health, you won’t be disappointed."

"I started working with Rachel in April 2024 to train for my very first marathon last November. My goals were to get to the start line injury-free, enjoy the entire 26.2 miles, and–more ambitiously–finish under 4:15. With Rachel’s coaching, I achieved all three!
Since then, I’ve seen consistent progress in my running. I like to keep things varied on my race calendar–5ks, 10ks, half marathons, multi-day events, and triathlons– and Rachel always creates training plans tailored to my specific goals and lifestyle.
What I appreciate most is how well she communicates and adapts. She’s understanding on the days I need to take it easy, but she also knows when I need a push. She holds me accountable in the most supportive way. I have new running goals to chase this year, and I’m excited to see where Rachel’s coaching can take me!"

5-Star Review for Coach Rachel
"I’ve been working with Coach Rachel for two years and through four races, and I can honestly say she’s been a game-changer for my running journey. From the very first training plan to race day, Rachel’s guidance, support, and expertise have helped me grow as a runner in ways I never thought possible.
The biggest challenge we tackled together was the NYC Marathon, and Rachel was absolutely instrumental in getting me through it. Her training plans were spot-on—tailored to my pace, goals, and fitness level—while also keeping me mentally strong and motivated throughout the process. She was always available to answer questions, offer encouragement, and provide thoughtful feedback after every run.
What stands out the most about Rachel is her unwavering support, not just in physical training, but in mindset. She helped me stay focused, confident, and injury-free, even when things got tough. Thanks to her expertise, I crossed the finish line of the TSC NYC Marathon feeling stronger and more prepared than I ever thought possible.
If you’re looking for a coach who knows how to get results, keeps things fun, and truly cares about your success, I highly recommend Rachel. I’m so grateful for everything she’s done to help me achieve my marathon dreams!"
