MEET THE COACHES

FOUNDER/HEAD COACH

Coaching and leading have been an ingredient in Jenna’s life for over 2 decades now. Between coaching sports, captaining teams, being a personal trainer, and coaching endurance athletes, she has helped hundreds of athletes and clients reach their performance and personal growth goals. Endurance sports in particular require great commitment and dedication, but hard work and consistency always pays off. The best part of that being, you tend to learn something about yourself and grow as a human being within the process. It brings her true joy to witness a client achieve their goals after many weeks of putting in the work. As an ex-NCAA Division 1 and professional soccer player, soccer laid the foundation for her athletic knowledge and mindset for achieving big and challenging physical goals.

She has ran several marathons, including Boston, NYC, and Chicago, and is currently working on her own sub 3hr. She is a 5x Ironman and qualified for and competed in the 2023 Kona Ironman World Championships. She has finished top 3 female and top 10 overall in nearly every ultramarathon race she has done. She claimed 1st place overall at the 2024 Sangre de Cristo 100M and 3rd place overall at Katcina Mosa 100K, completed the famed Leadville 100, and most recently got top 10 female at Big Foot 200M!

She resides in the beautiful state of Colorado with her husband and two crazy vizsla pups.
