Meet Mary Carter
After starting competitive running at an early age, I cycled through a couple of decades of life and inactivity, finding myself starting over with running at the age of 48. I have done many races since starting over from 5k, 5mile, 10k, 10mile, HM and the Marathon. Through the cycles of life, my own journey with running has been a quest in itself for answers when quitting was not an option. My passion to help others through coaching was born from my experience with group programs and seeing the need for a more individualized approach.
