​
Holistic, personalized run coaching for every mile of your journey

"I have so much confidence in my running now."

Coaching is for every runner — you don’t need big performance goals to benefit from expert guidance in your training. Get ready for a race, improve your speed or endurance, or establish sustainable habits and a routine that fits your busy life and keeps you healthy. When you work with a running coach you can trust, you get to focus on the running rather than the planning.

 

I work with runners just like you, who are:

 

  • excited to start training for a new distance or your next race goal but unsure how to take your performance to the next level — you need something better than a standard training plan.

 

  • dusting off your running shoes after a break and discovering that your body has changed and doesn't recover the way it used to. Your running needs to change too so you can stay healthy.

 

  • frustrated that your pace isn't improving, your consistency is suffering, or your motivation has left the building. You need to rediscover the spark so you can keep running and enjoy it.

 

Sound familiar? With the right support, you can find the accountability, encouragement, and motivation you need!

“I am so happy with my fast paces. I definitely couldn’t have done them two months ago!”

Find the fun and enjoyment in running through your 40s and beyond

Hi, I’m Heini (”Haynee”). I specialize in coaching recreational women runners in their 40s and 50s. I can help you reach your big, ambitious race goals or find everyday accountability and motivation.

 

Whether you want to learn how to run faster, how to run longer distances, or simply how to find the joy in running and make it part of your life, I’m here to help you get on the right track.

​

Why work with me?

 

​​You get personalized training that fits your life, not a rigid plan you have to fit your life around. We'll talk about where you are now, where you want to be, and what's most important to you along the way. Together we'll design a schedule that feels enjoyable, balanced and fun — and gets you ready for the start line or the next steps on your running journey.

 

Don’t let fear or a lack of knowledge stand in your way! When we work together, you'll discover how to grow your confidence and become the runner you're meant to be.

“Heini understands the intricacies of coaching a middle-aged, 'over committed' female runner. She knows how to guide and push with gentleness and compassion and coaches by listening to her runner.”

Melissa, Florida

“Working with Heini, I learned to enjoy running. I finished my half marathon with a time I was super pleased with, while also having FUN during the race!”

Kelly, Illinois

“My favorite part is that my brain can relax with the planning and focus on the running when someone I trust laid out a plan for me! Hiring a coach has been a highlight of my running year.”
