Meet the Coach

Laura Brenner

Laura is an endurance road, trail, and mountain runner. She is an RRCA Certified running coach and has become a passionate student of the sport. Laura found running in her 20s and has since discovered the joy of “Type 2 Fun.” Her favorite type of race is trail and mountain races in places she’s never run.

Laura was born and raised in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, and as such, has a fine appreciation for humidity, rocks, and baked goods of all varieties. When she’s not running and racing, Laura enjoys hiking, backpacking, and traveling to beautiful corners of the U.S. in a self-converted van.

Queen Piper

In memorandum of our first official assistant, Piper.

While never an official coach, Piper reviewed all training plans and workout performances with a keen eye for over-working and under-snacking. She is greatly missed.
