    #54 Powerful Attributes of an Effective Coach

    #54 Powerful Attributes of an Effective Coach

    In this episode, Sally sits down with her friends, Billy Yang and Jason Koop! Sally has been fortunate enough to call Jason her coach this past year & she thought it was fitting to sit down with him to chat about all things coaching.



    Jason is the head coach of CTS Ultrarunning with 20+ years of coaching experience. He is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to the science of running and programming, but in this episode, Sally draws out the character, personality and passion, that is behind "Coach Koop".



    You will be encouraged as you hear how Jason got started in coaching, his background, the emphasis that he places on relationships when coaching and insights of how he approaches each athlete, uniquely, when programing their training plan.

    #53 Eddie Runs a Marathon

    In this episode we recap the BUSY marathon weekend from bib pick-up at the LA Marathon expo, Isaiah's 16th birthday party, Makenzie's late night race at Sound Running and the play by play of Eddie's marathon debut!



    Also, listen in as Sally shares how we all interact with pain differently and how important it is to not give it attention. She also shares how we have the freedom/choice to determine our race goals and the amazing things we can accomplish when we choose to push through discomfort.



    We hope you are encouraged!
