Today I speak with Coach Danielle Hurt, for her second visit on the podcast! Coach D helps new runners, triathletes, marathoners and everyone in between learn how to improve their running and strengthen their bodies. She addresses the importance of having a running coach on your team, whether that be a personal trainer who has experience as a running coach or a dedicated running coach. Coach D gets real with the nitty gritty of changing as a runner after the first or second (or third or fourth) baby and why dropping the ego will serve you in the long run.Coach D is a powerhouse!
