Coach Croft

se, and eventually a full hysterectomy due to Endometriosis, I found myself navigating endurance training in a body without its own hormones. So I built my own path back to stronger, faster, and more sustainable running—and turned that experience into the foundation of my coaching. My running journey began in 2009, much of it self-coached. I’ve raced across distances up to the marathon, but real progress didn’t come from simply doing more. It came from learning how to train smarter, move more efficiently, and respect the body I was actually in. That shift changed not only my performance, but my relationship with running. Today, I specialize in coaching Masters + Menopausal athletes, helping them build strength, confidence, and longevity in their training. I also enjoy working with runners of all backgrounds and experience levels who are ready to move beyond grind-based approaches and toward something more sustainable. My goal is to help athletes feel less alone in their journey, more capable in their bodies, and better equipped to pursue their goals with clarity and intention.
