Running Strong: Running and Strength Training Tips for Everyday Athletes

44 - Sara Sarensen Interview

Listen Later

This week I had the pleasure of interviewing Sara Sarensen - an athlete whom I've been coaching for 3-4 months and who just completed her first trail half marathon!

Sara and I got together to chat about life and running and why she hired a coach in the first place.

Enjoy!
