I've been working with the Bawcom's since 2018, and I've seen significant improvement in my running abilities year after year thanks to their training. With their guidance, I've participated in two Olympic Marathon Trials and achieved a personal best of 2:16 in the marathon. Their experience and expertise in working with high-level runners have been invaluable to my progress. I trust their methods completely and attribute much of my success to their coaching.
Janet is great to work with. I think we're going on at least 2 years now? Probably more. I think she knows my capabilities better than I do. I'm 45 and am really happy with where I'm at in my training... Janet is great to work with. I think we're going on at least 2 years now? Probably more. I think she knows my capabilities better than I do. I'm 45 and am really happy with where I'm at in my training. She has also kept me basically injury free, which I had a lot of issues with before hiring a coach. Can't recommend enough. 🙂
Janet is super. She really spends the time to understand your goals and abilities in order to find a way to succeed.
