Our philosophy

Our coaching philosophy is rooted in a love for the sport and an unwavering commitment to supporting individuals of all levels to achieve their running dreams.

We believe that the best training is not only evidence based and rooted in science, but also is the training that the athlete believes in. We care to communicate often and effectively, and support athletes in more than simply completing prescribed miles. We strive for every athlete that works with us to learn about training but even more about themselves as an athlete and human.

Our commitment to our athletes is to always be professional and accepting, to be coaches who continue to further our education, and to ensure every athlete knows they are capable of reaching their highest, most exciting goals.

We strive to understand the current science, recognize gaps in evidence that exist both across distances in this sport and across populations, in order to safely and intentionally create individualized programming. We will think deeply about the why behind the programming so you can go out and enjoy the run as you move towards your goals!

I really appreciate how Pacific Pine asked questions to get to know me and tailored a training plan for my first ultra. After my successful race I started working with them monthly and have never looked back. They know how to push me and challenge me, all while taking the time to listen to my needs and my goals. I feel that they really know me, even though we haven’t met in person. I appreciate the amount of work they devote to personalizing my plan, and the research that goes into what they put in my plan. Since joining with Pacific Pine, I am a faster, smarter, and stronger runner, and am excited to continue to grow.

A few years ago I signed up for a few big races that I thought were on the edge of my abilities. I had a history of DNFs at shorter distances and was feeling uncertain about so many aspects of running that I wasn't sure how I was going to train let alone race. Jenny was unfailingly patient, grounded, encouraging, respectful, enthusiastic and compassionate. She was always focused on the science and quickly set up a training schedule that felt comfortable and successful. With their help, I've completed events that I thought were near impossible. Jenny has truly helped me achieve my dreams!

Being in my 40’s, running my own business and having 3 kids made it very difficult for me to plan my own training. Jenny and Katrina created a structured training plan that works around my work and family life. After only 5 months I have learned so much about training, running and nutrition. Their knowledge and encouragement have helped me improve my running so much, while teaching me to help my body adapt without injuries. I’m now registered into 3 races this year and planning some crazy new goals for next year. I wish I contacted them years ago! I highly recommend them!
