About Me
Hi there!
My name is Lynsey, and I'm a passionate runner 🏃🏾♀️ and running coach based in Colorado Springs, CO. I have been running for over a decade, and it has become an integral part of my life.
I was introduced to running during my middle school years when I participated in sprinting events (100m, 200m, 4 x 400m and long jump), I continued sprinting through high school. Although I took a break from running for a while, I rediscovered my love for it when some friends invited me to join their Reno-Tahoe Odyssey team (a 12-person long-distance relay). The race left me feeling incredibly sore, but it sparked something within me. Determined to improve, I decided to train properly for the next year's race.
To gauge my fitness level, I entered a local 5k event, and that's when I truly fell in love with running. Since then, I have enthusiastically taken part in countless 5ks and 10ks, completed 14 half marathons, and 3 full marathons. I am also a pacer with Beast Pacing and On Pace. Running has not only become a physical endeavor for me but also a source of joy, personal growth, and inspiration.
I consider myself a true running nerd 🤓. When I'm not out on the road, you'll find me immersed in conversations about running, devouring running-related literature, or simply lost in thoughts about my next run. My passion for running and my insatiable thirst for knowledge led me to become a certified coach. I believe that sharing my experiences and expertise can help others avoid the pitfalls I've encountered along the way.
Throughout my journey, I've learned valuable lessons, such as what not to do and how to prevent injuries 🤕. I want to empower fellow runners to make informed choices, develop sustainable training habits, and discover the true joy that running brings. Running is not just a hobby or a short-term goal; it's a lifetime commitment that can lead you to places you never thought possible.
On a personal note, I've been happily married since 2010, and I'm the proud parent of a beautiful young daughter. Originally from Reno, NV, my family and I made the exciting move to Colorado Springs in July 2021, embracing new opportunities and a fresh running environment.
I'm thrilled to connect with fellow running enthusiasts, share my experiences, and inspire others to embark on their own running journeys. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned runner, I'm here to help you find your stride and realize your full potential. Let's lace up our running shoes 👟 and take some positive strides explore the incredible world of running together!
