A lot of runners think the leap from “I do a few miles” to “I can finish a trail marathon” is just… add more miles.
Sure, you could do that. You could also eat an entire block of cheese before a run — doesn’t mean it’s a good idea.
Here’s the truth: Running farther takes more than just tacking on distance until your knees start sending hate mail. You need a plan. One that tells you when to push, when to rest, and how to build the kind of trail strength that lets you finish your race smiling instead of crawling back to your car wondering why you paid money to suffer.
That’s exactly what I’m giving you.
I Coach Everyday Women...
The ones with careers, kids, aging parents, pickleball matches, and zero desire to spend every weekend living out of their car at a trailhead — to go from 5Ks to marathons (and beyond).
Now, I’m giving you the same training principles I give my paying athletes — you just get to build your own plan from them. (Think of it like I’m handing you the trail map, and you get to pick your own adventure. But… y’know… without getting lost in the woods.)
From “no way” to “I did it!”—Grab your FREE 5K to Trail Run Marathon and learn to run stronger, injury-free, and still love every mile.
What You’re Getting
This isn’t a sad little PDF you’ll forget about two days later. This is a free mini-coaching experience. You’re getting:
1. Kick-Off Video + PDF Guide
-
We’ll start with a welcome video where I walk you through exactly how this works, what to focus on, and how to make it fit your life.
-
The PDF lays out the big-picture structure — training phases, strength work, fueling tips, pacing basics — all the same stuff I cover with my 1:1 athletes.
-
You’ll use this to create your own training plan that works for your life, your trails, and your schedule. (Promise: it’s easier than picking a race outfit the night before.)
2. Weekly Training Emails (for 4 Months)
-
Each week, you’ll get bite-sized coaching in your inbox. We’re talking clear, actionable steps — no fluff, no overwhelm.
-
At least 3 of these will include short videos where I break down each phase:
-
VO₂ Max Phase — Build speed and power so you can crush climbs without blowing up.
-
Lactate Threshold Phase — Run strong for longer, even when the trail is rude.
-
Endurance Phase — Learn to go long without your body staging a rebellion.
-
-
Plus bonus tips on recovery, mental prep, and building confidence on technical trails.
3. The “This Actually Works” Factor
This is what my paying athletes get — the same coaching principles, the same tools. You just get the freedom to make them work for you.
Why You’ll Love This
Because it’s not:
Another cookie-cutter “marathon plan” you found on Google.
An unrealistic schedule that has you running 6 days a week and ignoring your family.
A bunch of jargon that makes you feel like you need a physiology degree to start.
Instead, you get:
Training that fits into real life (yes, even if you have a job, kids, and a Netflix queue).
Guidance on the right runs, the ones that actually make you stronger.
Fueling tips that keep you from hitting the wall — or inhaling a questionable gas station burrito out of desperation.
Who This Is For
This program is for you if:
-
You’ve done a 5K, 10K, or half-marathon on trails and are ready for a marathon.
-
You’ve been trail-curious and want to build mileage without breaking yourself.
-
You’re balancing training with work, family, and real-life stuff — and need flexibility.
-
You want to get stronger, go farther, and still have a life outside of running.
This isn’t your jam if:
-
You’re looking for a one-size-fits-all plan you can blindly follow.
-
You refuse to slow down, rest, or strength train.
-
You want a “marathon in 30 days” crash course. (That’s a nope.)
-
You’re after elite-level, race-specific coaching right now — that’s what my paid work is for.
What You Might Be Thinking…
“I’m not running a marathon anytime soon, so this won’t help me.”
Even if your biggest race this year is a half, these principles will make you faster, stronger, and more resilient.
“I don’t have time for high-mileage training.”
I don’t either. You’ll learn which runs matter most so you can skip the junk miles and still get results.
“I’m too slow / not a ‘real’ runner.”
Trail running isn’t about pace — it’s about effort, time on your feet, and having the confidence to keep going when the trail gets tough.
Why This Works
Because it’s real-life tested on women who:
-
Have careers, kids, and 47 things on their to-do list.
-
Want to make progress without training taking over their life.
-
Need a plan that works around them, not the other way around.
And because you’re not just “downloading something” — you’re stepping into a guided process that will actually get you from where you are now to that trail marathon start line.
Join the free 5K to Trail Marathon experience and learn how to go from “I can’t imagine running that far” to “I can’t believe I just did that” — without overtraining, injury, or losing your love for the dirt.
