Run better, live better

Where running meets reflection— become the version of you that feels most alive

Running is more than exercise— it’s a powerful tool for physical and personal transformation. Pursuing a running goal, staying consistent, and pushing through challenges not only builds fitness, but also reveals resilience and inner strength. It’s proof that you’re more capable, and more badass, than you think. But…

There are obstacles to harnessing running for physical and personal transformation. Running can be intimidating if you are a newer runner. It can be hard to fit running into daily life, especially with a full time job. Fortunately, these are obstacles that I have experienced firsthand and can help manage.

I coach individuals who want to feel strong from the inside out by using running as a path to empowerment. If you are feeling burnt out or disconnected from your authentic self, I will help you build strength, confidence, and clarity— through custom training plans, reflective journaling, and supportive coaching calls—that radiate into every area of life.

About ten years ago, I started out as an intimidated, new runner who didn’t feel like I could call myself a “runner.” I learned to define running for myself, navigating many different challenges within running, including injury and balancing running with a 9-5 full time job and a busy life. Over time, running became more than just a workout — it became a way to reconnect with myself. Each challenge I’ve overcome and each milestone I’ve hit has helped me realize that the power in running lies in the journey, not the finish line.

I became a certified running coach to help others experience the same transformation, from unsure to empowered and from burnt out to reconnected. No matter where you are at in your running journey, I’m here to support you in building a running practice that brings out the most authentic, confident version of yourself!

    - Juliet

  • Deanna was the ideal coach for my first half marathon - she worked with me to develop a plan that accommodated my lack of running experience, the challenge of training in Vermont during the snowy winter, and built in flexibility to accommodate my travel schedule. I told her my time goals for the race, and in the end I beat the most ambitious time, thanks in large part to her training plan!
