Your Coach
Hi, I'm Emily.
UESCA Certified Running Coach
I'm a UESCA-certified running coach based in Albany, NY, working with runners across the Capital Region (Schenectady, Troy, Saratoga) and nationwide. For 3+ years I've coached 70+ athletes at every level — from first-time 5Kers to Boston qualifiers.
I'm a runner myself, too: over 15+ years I took my own marathon from 3:57 to 2:59 through structured training, set a 1:19 half PR, and I've qualified for the Boston Marathon six times (run it once), plus the NYC Marathon.
Whether you’re chasing a first finish line or a big PR, I’m here to make the process feel clear, supportive, and actually fun.
