grit running

Grit Running is about finding your running mojo. What fires you up. What gets you out the door and keeps you coming back for more.

Steph Bruce has been training and racing as a professional athlete for the past 15+ years. She is a 3 time US Champ, 2 time World Cross member, PRs of 15:17 for 5k, 31:24 for 10k, 69:55 half marathon and 2:27 marathon. She has been top 10 at Chicago Marathon, London Marathon, Ny Marathon, top 3 at CIM and Honolulu Marathon.

More importantly her career has allowed her to connect with the running community in a way that drove her to launch personal coaching because she believed if she could achieve these dreams and goals through her hard work and grit balancing life raising kids, why couldn’t others do the same. Not train like her, but train to the best of their abilities and really maximize their own time and energy to achieve their goals. That’s what you’ll find here at Grit Running. Your way, your path, doing hard things, and having the right support and direction.

“I haven't been working with Stephanie for very long but it has been a great experience.  She has helped me to
overcome injuries, get my times down, and get through my mental blocks.

For the past five years, I watched my running times get worse and was constantly battling injuries.  Stephanie
started coaching me about 6 - 7 months ago and since then my times have been getting better and I have overcome my
injury problem.  The program that Stephanie designed was challenging but it hits the spot, it helps you become
a stronger runner and gives you the confidence you need to succeed while meeting a busy schedule. 

Not only is the program right but the coaching advice is great and Stephanie is always willing to give you her
opinion and answer any questions you have.  The best decision that I have ever made in my running career was to
start working with Stephanie.  I know that I will be challenged and that I will be a stronger, better runner because
of working with her.  My times are already starting to show the strength of her plans and her coaching tips.”
