Meet the Coach 
My name is Melinda Farrow

I have been Coaching runners since 2019 in distances of 5km, half marathons, marathons and Ultramarathons both in person and online.

I am an avid trail runner myself and prefer the ultramarathon distance. I have always had my own coach to help me achieve my goals so i really know the benefit having a coach brings. 

I am always evolving and learning as a coach. I am passionate about  educating myself on how to best help my athletes achieve their goals by keeping up with the latest in sports science and training strategies.

I love seeing athletes grow and gain confidence. Helping athletes who never thought they could run or do a longer distance or ultramathon set and achieve their goals and gain a love of running is the best part of being a coach.

What drives my Coaching

Passion, purpose and commitment to the success and well being of my athletes.

A deep love of running and the outdoors fuels my dedication.

My enthusiasm for running is my motivation to inspire others to reach their potential and watch them grow physically and mentally.

Building a supportive community of runners from all walks of life with one common goal of running.
