What some of our NoBo graduates are saying:

"I am still in shock that I ran 3.1 miles today when I could barely breathe 10 weeks ago running for only 1 minute! Thank you both for your excellent training program and answers to all my questions so I could be successful in this event. I am so proud I was able to not only finish, but to run without walking!!! I never imagined in my wildest dreams I would run a 5K at the age of 50 without any prior running experience. Thanks for making memories with me!"

"In addition to being incredibly knowledgeable, you were so positive and supportive. Even with all your running experience you genuinely seemed happy for us and each small accomplishment we made along the way. It feels great to have completed our 5K goal and it feels even better that I actually looked forward to going for a run this morning!"

"I just wanted to say "thank you" for training me (us) in the beginner's running program. I learned a lot and I look forward to my next race and/or challenge."

"While I can’t speak for the group, I know everyone was really happy with the way things turned out today (at the 5K), and despite our work, you deserve so much credit. Personally, you’ve been inspiring with your encouragement and smile and infectious attitude, and I really appreciate the way you kept me going."
