"I fight for hard work and hustle."

Trainer, Marathon Runner

I’m a marathon runner, running coach, and full-time trainer at Barry’s Bootcamp in Boston. I ran my first marathon at age 22 (Baltimore Marathon) and just ran my 24th marathon (Boston). I ran Boston the year of the Boston Marathon bombing, something that’s definitely shaped me and I'll never forget it. I've always said to my clients, “Running really does save lives.” It's like an escape from your day-to-day. It really shows you, when you put your mind to it, not only what your body can do, but mentally, it shows you what you can pull out of yourself when you have goals.
