Run SMART client Gundula Brattke finished her first marathon this past weekend at the Cox Sports Marathon in Providence, RI. Her official time was 5:19:09 (full results). When she signed up for coaching this past summer and began working with Run SMART coach Alicia Shay her longest run was 13 miles. Congrats to Gundula on this great accomplishment! Next stop is the New York City Marathon this fall!
Run SMART client Gundula Brattke attended the 2010 Run SMART Retreat and then decided to sign up for private coaching. Her main goal when she signed up was to improve so she could enjoy her runs more. After major knee surgery five years ago she finished her first half marathon this past May. Since joining The Run SMART Project and working with coach Alicia Shay she has dropped over 25 minutes off her half marathon best and set new PRs for 5 miles and 10k!
