Coach Natalie McLeod
I am originally from Canada. I used to kickbox when I was younger. I now lift weights multiple times per week and have been a streak runner off and on since 2014. My current streak started 11/11/2023. I have been an avid trail runner since 2009 and an ultramarathon runner since 2014. I attended the University of Alberta and Grant Macewan University in Edmonton Alberta Canada. I am a NASM certified personal trainer and Virtual Coach. I have a Behavioral Change Specialist Certification and the UESCA Trail and Ultrarunning Coaching Certification. I am a single parent of 9 (8 at home) I am a former foster parent and a current adoptive mother. I have 6 cats and 2 large dogs which I adore.
My Coaching Philosophy :
I truly believe everyone has a place in the running community especially in the trail and ultrarunning space. I think the problem is most people are too hard on themselves and do not know how to create and execute a plan to reach their goals. I am of the opinion that working on our daily habits in the beginning is the first step to success in pursuit of our goals. I think humans can do almost anything if they want it bad enough and are willing to work hard for it.
