SAYARD TANIS COACHING

Doesn't Coach Sayard sound amazing? Let her athletes tell you just how amazing she is! 

​

"My journey with Sayard began quite a few years ago when I was a constantly injured OCR weekend warrior in my 40s and she was my physical therapist. Her knowledge of running injuries and how to treat and prevent them was impressive. Later when she was a manager for the Inside Track, she analyzed my gait and running form and always recommended the best shoes for me. We have run mostly the same races so she already has extensive knowledge of the major trail races on the east coast. I have been coming to her for advice and coaching for years now, and this past year at 56 years old, with her expert tutelage, I have PRd on both my 5K and half marathon times, and have easily completed the Quest for the Crest 50K- billed as the toughest race on the east coast. If you are looking for a coach who understands every step of the way from beginner to world class competitor, Sayard is the obvious choice."

"Sayard helped me to accomplish my goal of running my first 100K. I could not have done it without her! She provides customized workout schedules that are fun, effective, and flexible, and that is just the start. She assists with ALL ASPECTS of training and racing: nutrition, strategy, planning, injury treatment/prevention, and motivation to name a few.  She is good at working with a wide range of athletes, from beginner to experienced. If your goal is just to finish a race or to win it, she can help!"

​

"I've been running for over 15 years and always just cobbled together training plans based on what I read in magazines or online. When I tried to incorporate speed work or hill training I would end up abandoning it quickly because I didn't know how to structure the workouts correctly. I just had no idea what I was doing. Thank God for Coach Sayard! She gives me incredibly well thought-out, detailed training plans each month. The plans not only cover running, but strength training, yoga, stretching, rehab and injury prevention. She works with me to fit the workouts into my life, around my kids and obligations, without sacrificing quality. I've become a faster, stronger runner but I've also built up a lot of mental toughness which helps me in the rest of my life as well.
