BRAND NEW: The Calf & Achilles Cure Toolkit


Ready for a big reveal?

This is what I've been working on behind-the-scenes for probably the last month.

I know. You're girl is as slow as molasses sometimes.

But that's because I want things to be PERFECT for you. Because you have excellent questions that deserve top-tier answers and actionable solutions.

So I give you:

The FREE Calf & Achilles Cure Toolkit:

  • made for marathoners sidelined by stiff, painful Achilles and tight, injury-prone calves who want to protect their training cycle and show up to the starting line strong, pain-free, and ready to race.

Did I mention it's 1000% FREE?

This Toolkit is the answer and solution to your questions like:

  • Why does my achilles feel tight during speed work or running up hills?
  • Why am I constantly struggling with aching, nagging calf and ankle pain on long runs that won’t let up?
  • Why are my calves as tight as steel cables no matter how aggressively or long I stretch?
  • Why is only one of my calves sore and uncomfortable?

Because not only are all of these scenarios annoying, but...

They can bring your training to a grinding halt when they persist, get worse, and potentially lead to a full blown injury requiring weeks off instead of a few extra rest or cross-training days.

I made the Calf & Achilles Cure Toolkit so you can stay on track for race day and NOT stop your training.

I wanted you to feel like you DO have control; that you have actionable, forward-moving steps when your calves or achilles decide to throw a tantrum and veto your long run.

Because there's nothing worse than following your plan, committing, showing up for yourself, and then fighting with the decision to keep going or trash it all.

Now, you're one step closing to toeing the starting line on race day. ;)

P.S. No really, it's pretty cool. Stronger Achilles, healthy calves all add up to a phenomenal race day. Go check it out ;)

Contrary to popular belief... stretching, foam rolling, and resting your hamstring strain is NOT your savior. Going ham and jumping immediately into RDLs: *might* not feel good either. I recently had a runner reach out who I worked with before in the past (HI HEATHER!!)...and her dumb-dumb hamstring strain is still being a butt a year-ish later. This is no shame on her. This isn't because my exercises "didn't work". This is to show you how fickle hamstrings can be. And how nuanced and...

It used to be one of the banes of my PT-existence. Elbows take the cake. I don't like elbows. Good thing we don't use those to run. But IT Band syndrome and all it's ick were sort of....nebulous, even in PT school. It's not my professors fault; it's just where the research was at the time. And unfortunately, that left YOU, the runner, with some pretty cruddy advice: "Foam roll! Stretch! Do a billion lunges. Strengthen your glutes..." Not all of that is bad advice...but can you spot the single...

I went down the IT Band rabbit hole and about threw my computer out the window. If you're new here, I'm already NOT huge into foam rolling. (no, it's not "bad"...I have complicated relationship with it.) ...I think it can be overused and seen as a quick, cure-all touted by fitness gurus. ESPECIALLY when it comes to IT Band pain. Think about it: what is foam rolling supposed to do? Pretend this is a pop quiz and you have to answer the question "how does foam rolling help and/or cure IT Band...
