  1. Hi there! Lauren Funderburk suggested you to me. I am an intermediate runner. However I have a problem with motivation. I’ll run religiously for a few months then not run at all for another few. I’m on and off all the time. Ive completed 4 half marathons, one marathon, i believe 4 river runs, and a bunch of 5, 6, and 10Ks. I am doing the Maui Marathon in Sept 2010. I really want to be 110% trained for this bc while I am in Maui it will also be my vacation. I want to be able to finish the race and not be sore so that I can enjoy some hiking and surfing and other leisure activities during the reminder of my trip. I know I won’t need to officially train until it gets closer. Would you be able to work with me on this? If so could you give me more information on your training program and prices. I know training during the summer is going to be horrible. I prefer cooler weather for running. But I have to do it. I know I can.

  2. Hi Kristen,

    Thanks for reaching out to me. I think you would love the groups and wuld suggest you either emailing me at paul@personalrunningsolutions.com or try giving me a call at (904) 316-8122, so we can discuss options and the plan to get you ready for the marathon. You are right in the sense that mush of your training is going to fall right in the summer, but to counteract this somewhat we could start earlier to offset some of this. Anyway, I would love to talk to you more about this so feel free to contact me,

    Paul
