I have been working with Bree for the past eight months. Working with Bree has included her weekly online training plan, some one on one training sessions, and some runs together. I started working with Bree when I decided I wanted to do my first Ultra. Not only did she help me gain the fitness and strength to complete my first Ultra but I was also able to enjoy it 🙂 Because of the fitness gains I had made and confidence that I had built I continued working with Bree to complete a second Ultra and am now eyeing a third. For me what really sets Bree apart from other coaches is her ability to understand the dynamics of whats going on in my life and successfully adapt my training to those dynamics and still be successful in achieving my goals. I am a stay at home dad with three small children so this flexibility is super important to me and Bree more than delivered. In addition and probably most important to me, Bree has educated me on how to become stronger and more fit on my own while minimizing the risk of injury so many runners encounter. The knowledge I have obtained regarding training and nutrition is something that will benefit me for years to come.

I decided to get back on a health journey because I am turning 50 this year! I was over weight, in antidepressants and anxiety medication, not eating right and having back pain. I was tired all the time! Not only did I hit 150 lbs but I was sleeping my life away!

I didn’t like myself very much and I was tired of coming up with excuses as to why I looked and felt the way I did! So I took the leap one day and said…enough! I was spiraling out of control.

I met Bree and the rest was history! Starting my journey in May, I quit all my meds, started eating healthy, and exercised everyday. There were many days that I found myself frustrated and wanting to quit but I knew I had to stick to it!

Now I am 14 lbs lighter!!! I am continuing to lose the weight and firming up in the process! I no longer have back pain. I have way more energy and do not need the sleep I once did. I actually feel happier than when I was on my meds! I love me now!! Not because of the transformation itself but because of the determination it took me to get where I am. It was all worth it and I will continue on this journey day by day!

Thank you Bree for the support and lifting me up to get here!! Every woman should have that backing them during this process!

Bree has been a coach, mentor and most of all a great friend. She has coached me over several years and has supported me during periods where life was not so kind to me. It is not all about how much you train but moreover have a coach that listens, encourages, and supports you.

I have been working with Bree for many years and now living in Switzerland, it is even more important to me that I have her support. Our weekly call not only helps me focus on my training but also inspires me to push harder. Bree is a wonderful coach and an incredible athlete. She is my inspiration, and I hope one day to be able to run along her side.

I am so proud of her and wish her many successful races.

Bree is an exceptional coach. I have trusted my training to her for some of my key and highly anticipated races and she more than delivered. From interactive training plans, to one-on-one training sessions, to weekly chats and occasional joint runs, her coaching has helped me achieve and exceed my goals. She has a wealth of experience and knowledge to draw from and can break down that knowledge to easy to understand plans, instruction and workouts that have equipped me for the races and adventures I have run. Bree is easy to work with, a great encourager and a positive voice, a coach that can help you clarify your goals and coach you to exceed them!

Bree transformed my approach to training and turned me into a successful ultramarathoner. I came from a background of road marathons and wanted to step up to trail ultras. Her wisdom and experience spoke volumes as she assessed my starting point and implemented the necessary changes.

Most impressive with Bree is her listening to what’s happening in one’s life and adapting plans accordingly. She does not do multi-week plans; instead, she works to a larger plan but fills in the details weekly based on how I’m doing. She makes sure we’re connected on all stresses, strains and changes to goals. Through this thoughtful and wise approach, I was able to train and successfully compete in several ultras injury free.

She is a font of knowledge and is a superb friend. Work with Bree if you want to enjoy the success she brings you; the process is as much fun as the races themselves.

I had a dream to combine my love of running with my passion for the great outdoors for many years. I dabbled in trail running but never knew how to get my fitness to a level that could sustain the effort to complete ultramarathon distances.

Bree’s expertise not only in ultrarunning, but in physiology, nutrition, and mental discipline has provided everything I need to accomplish my goal. Over the past 4 years, I have progressively increased distances from 10K to 100K and have had some incredible experiences in remote places as well as achieving my bucket list goal of qualifying for and completing the Boston Marathon.

Turning age 60 this year, I have set my sights on my first 100 mile trail run which I feel certain to succeed at with Bree’s thoughtful, thorough approach to training. Every workout is a new challenge leading to higher levels of flexibility, strength, endurance and performance. I feel I am in the best shape of my life.

I am impressed with the care she takes with her clients as individuals – developing tailored plans to reach specific goals and providing the cheerful motivation to meet them.

Training with Bree has been such a positive experience! She is a supportive and empowering coach who cares deeply about her clients. She focuses on her clients’ individual goals and lays the foundation for success. Without a doubt, I am a stronger runner because of her and with her help, I reached my longtime goal of running the Boston Marathon. Thank you, Bree!
