This is what others say:
Half Marathon Training:
“ I completed a half-marathon today in the Columbia Gorge. I put all our tactics to work learned in the Wonders of Walking training. I came in 24 minutes earlier than my goal. It was an out and back course. I was 15 minutes faster on the back portion. It was a good experience.” Jeanie P.
Portland to Coast Relay Team
“ We had a wonderful experience and our team, Out to Lunch, came in first in the Mixed Masters division. Kevin was awesome. Cathy did fabulously, and I was pretty happy with how I did. I did a better job of training than usual, thanks to you.
We really benefited from your work with us. “ Jane M.
Portland Marathon and Big Sur Power Walk
“By working with Judy I have been able to improve my form, my pace and my endurance. I've learned how to set and attain goals and even more important, how to evaluate each performance for what I might do differently for the next event. Judy's unique combination of knowledge and support makes her an ideal trainer. She's the best!!! “ Lynn G.
