Congrats to our client Katie on her hard-earned PR and BQ!! She sent us this recap which perfectly distills the way we help clients. She writes,
“I’ve been listening to the podcast for 4 years now and took the plunge into coaching this summer. Best decision ever!
I recently completed the California International Marathon and scored a 6 minute PR and hard earned BQ. This was absolutely the best I have ever felt during both the training cycle and actual marathon and I have MTA’s Coach Steve to thank!! When I was training on my own, I was taking both my easy and hard runs too hard as well as chronically under fueling.
On long run days I used to be so fatigued that I would basically be bed ridden afterward, but this training block was different. Coach Steve helped me understand that easy isn’t a pace, and designed an expert training block that had me primed and ready for race day.
I trusted the process, gained fitness slowly but surely, and shocker, I had so much more energy than when I was over training on my own! As race day approached, Coach Steve outlined a race day pacing plan which I’ll admit I didn’t execute *perfectly* 🤣 BUT was so instrumental in making sure I took advantage of the course and didn’t blow up at the end. I nailed my carb load and fueling plan which made CIM the first marathon that I didn’t hit the dreaded wall.
I cried with happiness at the finish line as I now have a real shot at Boston which has been a life long goal and multi-year journey. Thank you Coach Steve and MTA, I couldn’t have done it without you!”
