Hi, I'm Casey.

 

I made a lot of mistakes when I first began running.

I thought it was simple. You put some shoes on...you run...and the more you run, the farther you run, the harder you run…the better runner you become!

However, these beliefs led me to a multitude of various injuries (plantar fasciitis, achilles tendinitis, runner’s knee, hamstring issues, glute med tendinopathy, i.e. the whole gambit), a lot of cumulative fatigue, and ultimately, little to no improvements in my running.

And, because of all this - honestly, I was starting to kind of hate running. I was frustrated, confused, and at times, even, felt pretty hopeless!

The outlook on my running career was looking pretty dismal.

Fast forward, though, through the course of earning my Doctorate in Physical Therapy and UESCA Running Coach certification - I learned of many things that I should’ve been doing that I wasn’t, and many things that I shouldn’t be doing that I was.

So, I slowly began to implement these new principles & strategies I'd been learning.

And the results were noticeable almost immediately - I felt stronger while running, was improving faster, and the injuries began to subside.

Fast forward even farther to today - and I recently ran a marathon with no injuries - a feat that my past self would have genuinely laughed in my face at!

I also have more energy on a daily basis, I feel stronger & faster than ever - and, most of all, I am infinitely more optimistic about my running journey going forward.

I say all of this with zero intent to brag - and with full intent to let you know that if you’re in somewhat of a dark place in your running & health right now - I have been there, and there is a way out!

And I want to help you do so.

So, a few years ago - after I learned from the prior mistakes I had made as a runner, began to see my own results, and felt that I had knowledge that could benefit others - I began to coach other beginner runners on the side in addition to my job as a physical therapist.

I wanted to help them avoid all the mistakes I did. And overall, it was great!

Clients who previously couldn’t stay away from running injuries were running healthy…

Clients with big goals of running their first ever 5K or marathon were reaching them…

However, I eventually learned that for most of my clients, they didn’t just want to be better runners, or to just run without injury - they wanted more.

They ultimately wanted better, improved health!

Both physically - whether that be weight loss, improved health metrics like body composition & blood pressure, shedding unwanted body fat...

And mentally - gained confidence, better mental wellness, less stress…

And they wanted to use running as one of the primary means to get there.

This is where I realized I could be better as a coach. If improved health was an additional underlying component of my clients' goals - I knew I could do more to support that.

So, one step I took to do this was getting certified by the best in the business, Precision Nutrition, to additionally offer nutritional game plans & guidance for my clients.

Health has multiple facets to it - exercise, sleep, stress management - and, of course, nutrition (to name a few).

Because, at the end of the day, I realized my clients ultimately wanted two things.

1) They wanted to be happy runners - actually enjoying running, seeing regular improvements, reaching their specific distance or time goals, feeling more energized & confident...

2) They wanted to be healthy runners - losing their desired weight, running injury-free, feeling lighter on their feet…

Thus, subsequently - the Happy & Healthy Runner Program - an all-encompassing, holistic system that practically puts beginner runners on a proven path to stronger running & better health - was born!

The program was made for those who may be completely new to running or have a bit more experience under their belts...

...for those who have tried using running in the past but were always hindered by injury...

...and ultimately, it was made for the beginner who wants to improve as a runner and dramatically better their health along the way.

It was not made for the runners who are running 40-50+ miles a week…or the runner who has completed 10+ marathons and is trying to PR their time...

So, if you see yourself as more of an advanced or elite runner - I’m not your guy, & this isn’t your program!

But, if you’d classify yourself at any of the beginner stages above, this was created exclusively for you, and it has the potential to change the course of your life.

If that’s what you want - let’s get you on that path!

Finally, thank you for taking the time to read through my story. It has taken 10+ years of education, experience, and many failures & victories to get to this point - and I am so excited to help get you on the fast track to reaching your running & health goals...and then some!

Hope to talk to you soon!
