I have run for eternity, since I was in middle school and earned a small track scholarship to run the mile in college; but my running was never a gift, I had to work my tail off to be mediocre. I know how tough the journey can be and have had to find that fine line between pushing past the comfort zone and over-training and can read the signs pretty well. I don't have all the answers, but I know what it took for me to achieve my Boston dreams and I love to share that knowledge with others. And along the way, make some true friendships! :)<br /><br />Maybe you could write a guest post for me about coaching?? <br /><br />Thanks, Paul - it's been an incredible journey!! Don't forget, I also swam in college and can always be your swim coach! ;)Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10174883718651790845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1109090155728755589.post-24122169452273491392012-05-01T06:56:22.748-07:002012-05-01T06:56:22.748-07:00I am glad that Jill worked for you!I am glad that Jill worked for you!Christihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17335001280807576664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1109090155728755589.post-76311980861680696582012-05-01T06:26:46.955-07:002012-05-01T06:26:46.955-07:00Glad it has worked for you--it's such a give a...Glad it has worked for you--it's such a give and take relationship. Good coaches are only good if they have a client who is committed and communicative as well.<br /><br />How was Eugene?? I clearly missed the post!

When I first came under her guidance -- I failed to provide enough information to help Jill make me successful. <br /><br />You may also earn a friend(s) through your coach as well --- BONUSC2Iowahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01711134194954222576noreply@blogger.com
