About

I am a runner, not an athlete. I have a son. I have red hair. I like beer. I love cake. I am married. I wish I was a singer in a rock and roll band. I snort when I laugh. I love to run with music. I am a bad speller. I lived on a boat. I used to surf. I weighted over 200lbs when I was pregnant. I had fun eating when I was pregnant. I have a terrible voice. I have run 4 marathons and 12 half marathons. I cry every time one of my students completes their first 5k. I know that physical activity can change your life. I love my job.

I have also personally coached 35 non-runner students to run 5ks to marathons. I have co-coached Seattle Fit in 2005-07, training over 300 new runners to run or walk the Seattle Marathon. I am a Certified Personal Trainer and an RCAA Certified Running Coach. I love being a Running Coach in Seattle...its a beautiful place to run.

"Never in my life before last year had I ever thought of myself as a runner. I don't have the runner's body shape nor had I ever ran one single mile. In school during P.E., I was always the girl who would sit out on all the strenuous activities and when it came to the timed mile test I would run as much as I could and walk the majority of the time clocking in at 20 minutes.

Through an easy consultation I grew comfortable with Beth and knew that she had only my best health interests in mind.

A couple months later I found myself looking forward to running and even taking circuit training classes in a group setting on the weekends. I just completed my first half marathon and have completely different outlook on running. With the tools and mindset Running Evolution instills, you an run anywhere and it is one of the affordable exercise outlets available!" -Carmen
