TW Training helps non-elite runners train smarter, get stronger, and race faster to hit their big running goals.
Description
After 12 years of working in the education field and 2 years of coaching with a local running store, Tammy decided to follow her true passion of coaching and fitness in 2017, which is when TW Training was born. She always thought that run coaching [and often times casual running groups] were a bit unaccessible for runners who didn’t consider themselves “fast” which is why TW Training specializes in supporting non-elite runners, especially those newer to long distance racing and who consider themselves middle of the pack runners.
Tammy is originally from Grand Rapids, MI, and a proud alum of the University of Michigan, where she received her B.S. in Movement Science. She’s completed 16 marathons, over 60 half marathons, and is running a half or full marathon in every state [with 36 completed so far]. She's also completed 5 of the World Marathon Majors. She’s a certified run coach through RRCA, as well as a certified personal trainer [NASM] and functional strength coach [CFSC], and she’s helped hundreds of runners reach their big goals in the 9+ years she’s been coaching.
Tammy currently resides in Chicago, IL, and can usually be found at a donut shop on Fridays.
