Coach Karen Dunn

I am passionate about running and it has been a big part of my life since I first started in grade school. I am a master's runner now and still making continuous progress. I am still setting PR's and taking the podium at major races and winning titles of smaller local half and full marathons. My greatest achievement was qualifiying for the Olympic Marathon Trials at the age of 43. I was 1 of only 33 other women across the country who are able to say they have accomplished this as a master's runner. I enjoy finding new areas of focus to keep me moving forward. As the owner, coach, and personal trainer of Strengthen Your Stride running coach and personal training services, I bring this same passion forward with the athletes I coach. One of my favorite reviews by a client said - "Karen meets you where you're at and takes you to a level you never thought possible!" I feel like that explains perfectly what I enjoy most about coaching - is giving my athlete's the tools they need to be successful and help them remove barriers and limiters we often place on ourself without even realizing it! I love helping my athletes find the best version of themself. Schedule time on my calendar through the link to my website. I'd love to speak with you about your background and what goals or aspirations you have and discuss how I can help you.
