"Lisa sets a schedule that keeps me at the edge of my own personal limits."
Lisa Understood My Ambitions
My experience with Lisa has been fantastic. I am a long way from being a professional athlete. My dream is to break a 5 hour marathon. But with Lisa’s help I have been able to improve my performance, cut back on injuries and prepare for my events in a more complete and sane manner.
Lisa Provides a Personal Touch
My biggest concern about using an on-line coaching situation was the potential for reduced contact time and personal touch. This has proven to be completely unfounded. Lisa has been there whenever I needed her and has responded to all my questions, concerns and doubts in a way which has made me feel genuinely cared for. In addition, I was concerned that not being a professional or world class athlete that the coaching may either be too difficult for me or else would take a “back seat” to the pro’s . Both of these fears have also proven to be unfounded.
Lisa sets a schedule that keeps me at the edge of my own personal limits, yet pushes me to expand my limits beyond anything I would have thought possible. Sometimes I look at my schedule with a sinking feeling in my stomach and think - oh no - but I have yet to have a schedule I couldn’t complete. As for my schedule being less important than the pro’s, I have never had that feeling. My schedules always come in a timely manner, are personalized and all my questions and concerns are addressed promptly.
Results
The results speak for themselves. This year I’ve set 3 PR’s in 3 different lengths, and have completed a number of very difficult activities. Between mid August and early October, I summated Mt. Chegat (3600m) and Mt. Elbrus (5640m) in Russia, completed the Vilnius Lithuania Marathon and the Toronto Half Marathon. I set a PR in the Toronto half, taking 8 full minutes off my best time.
I would highly recommend Lisa as a coach, no matter what level of exercise you are looking to attain. |
