‘’I believe that one size does not fit all when it comes to training. I strive to customize training programs to an individual‘s lifestyle and include factors such as running age, past injuries and long-term goals. I have learned more from my mistakes than from my successes and work to apply that knowledge to help runners achieve their goals.” - Sam Davis
