Jen ran her first marathon in 1994 as a senior at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, decked out in a Champion sweatshirt and cotton socks! She rediscovered her passion for running during COVID and started running half-marathons and marathons to celebrate turning fifty. She completed the 2022 TCS NY Marathon, the Bank of America Chicago marathon in 2023 and 2024, and a dozen half marathons in New York, Denver and New Mexico.

Jen has coached hundreds of runners for New York Road Runners. Now based in New Mexico, she coaches runners of all ages through training groups at The Running Hub and as a volunteer for Girls on the Run. To schedule a call to chat about running coaching, please click here.
