Jen started running at her Colorado mountain middle school because her friends did it. As an adult, running became a way to alleviate stress and enjoy some time in nature. In 2018, running was feeling harder than it had in the past. She hired a coach. Since hiring a coach, her running has only accelerated to include two Boston Marathon finishes and multiple other races.
Jen has completed her run coaching certifications through 80/20 Endurance and United Endurance Sports Coaching Academy (UESCA). She saw the value of having a coach and wanted to empower others to take their running to the next level.
She has been modifying animal behavior since 1998 by looking at what creates motivation, discovering barriers to change, envisioning an end goal, and applying achievable steps that increase confidence towards the end goal. She believes by applying these principles to coaching, athletes can achieve goals much greater than they thought they would.
Nettie has been a runner and a swimmer almost all her life. However, it was when she joined the Air Force that she found her love for strength training. After her enlistment was up she enrolled in the National Personal Training Institute where she really learned and fell in love with how the human body moves.
In 2021 Nettie was diagnosed with breast cancer. She was very blessed that is was minor, but it took her on a journey to discover even more about the power of the human body. Since then she has become a Health Coach through the Institute of Integrated Nutrition and has become a Certified Personal Trainer with ISSA. She believes the human body holds the power to heal if given the chance.
Nettie believes in taking challenges head on (including her sister) or if there isn't a challenge making the mundane challenging. She wants to see everyone succeed and will be the one helping to hold the cape up on those days when it is hard to be the super hero.
