GBWorking with Julie Tertin as my… Working with Julie (Tertin) Sandquist as my ultra-running coach was an outstanding experience. As a new entrant to ultra-running, her motivational pep talks and strategic guidance were instrumental in helping me complete my first 50-mile runs. Julie has a responsive and adaptive coaching style that addressed my unending list of questions, ranging from shoe selection and dietary adjustments, stretching, cross-training, chaffing and even specific race selection. Her approach focuses not on a single race but on a strong recovery phase leading to long-term race habits. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking to conquer their ultra-running fears and challenges.

GBBest coaching experience! Cory is a no non-sense coach. He gives structured workouts detailed to the athlete's goals. He gave workout plans to both me and my partner tailored to our specific running styles. He has a keen sense of how to coach the individual, rather than applying the same regimen for every runner. This makes him a good choice for all levels, from beginner to elite. And to boot, he is really genuine person -- always patient and willing to answer questions!

GBRunning into my new AG with Run Your Personal Best Simple, Direct, Honest, Personal and Blunt: Working with Coach Birdsong has been simple - I told him my running goals and what type of cross training I like to do and he creatively builds weekly workouts to fit my needs. Our 6-days a week communication style has been direct and honest. I tell him daily how I feel after a workout or a mental struggle at work and we go from there in a positive, uplifting, and guiding momentum. The personal workouts that Coach Birdsong builds in my Final Surge app are always prompt and push me to be the best athlete that I can be. I'm pretty blunt about my personal running struggles and how I take myself way too seriously and Coach Birdsong handles my pirate mouth like a pro! I had the opportunity to meet him in person and I found him to be genuine and a total sweetheart. The monthly fee is well worth investing it in myself. If you are on the fence about using an online service for a running coach - you should definitely consider Run Your Personal Best.

GBSupportive, expert coaching that goes the distance! With Julie's expert coaching, I successfully completed my first 50-mile ultramarathon! I've had multiple knee surgeries over the years, and was able to run this race injury-free. Julie tailors her coaching to your specific needs and provides so many great tips that make all the difference for training and racing.

GBLong term client I've been working with Brandon since 2019, and he has been an amazing coach. I've set big PRs in every distance from 5K to Marathon! We've navigated tough injuries, life stresses, travel, and everything in between. I find it so helpful to have a one-on-one cheerleader in my corner.
