- Description
- Hi, my name is Janell. I am an avid runner, teacher and coach. I married the love of my life and together we have the cutest daughter. I am a part of the KC Smoke Racing Team and compete in distances from 800m up to the marathon annually. I ran competitively in high school and college and I started coaching boys and girls high school cross country in 2008. I absolutely love working with young athletes and fondly remember my own experiences on the cross country team as some of the best parts of my high school and college career. I bring over 12 years of coaching experience working with runners of all levels including current head coach at the high school level. I have coached a broad range of athletes, including new middle school kiddos, state champions, and adults of all levels. I take great pride in being an active member of the KC running community. I believe communication is the foundation of a positive coach-athlete relationship. I utilize data driven, scientific best practices and feedback from each athlete to tailor plans to meet the individuals needs. As a working mom and competitive runner I can understand the stresses that come along during a training cycle and I will work with you to get the maximum benefits for your time. Training smarter is the key! I absolutely love running. I love the journey of self-discovery that every training cycle brings. I have fallen in love with the running community and have made the best life long friends.
