Hi, I’m danica yarnell

Your new online running coach and mentor!

As an online running coach, I'm passionate about helping you achieve all your running goals. My journey began as an elite gymnast until I was 21, which instilled in me a strong understanding of discipline and body mechanics. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology and a Master’s in Physician Assistant Studies, and I’ve spent 9 years as an Emergency Medicine Physician Assistant.

Interestingly, I used to hate running and often felt discouraged. However, discovering trail running changed my perspective, igniting a passion that led me from wanting to complete a marathon to conquering ultramarathons.

I believe anyone can run, and I’m here to provide the guidance, patience, and motivation you need. My coaching approach is holistic, incorporating injury prevention, strength training, nutrition tips, yoga, and mental training.

Whether you're starting your first 5K or aiming for an ultramarathon, I'm here to support you every step of the way. Let’s discover the joy of running together!
