Published: Sept. 30, 2024, 8 a.m.

Michaela is a nurse by degree, certified run coach, and cofounder of Strides for Strength run coaching.

She is passionate about combining her science knowledge and passion for health and well-being blended together to help athletes reach their full potential on the run and beyond, while always keeping longevity in mind.

Her favorite type of athletes to work with are first time marathoners, there is something so special about the edge you find and the person you become in the process. She says a lot - it\u2019s about running & it\u2019s not about running at all. Running can be life\u2019s greatest teacher if you truly just show up and let it.

When she\u2019s not running she\u2019s probably on a hike with her dog \xa0or doing anything to spend time outdoors.

In this episode we talk about:

  • Marathon training
  • Over training + over doing it
  • Seasons of life
  • The wall is bullshit
  • Intra race and fueling in general
  • Sodium while working out
  • Nurses on the run (not just for nurses)
