18 years and running
I’m Coach Emily Villines, a NASM Certified Personal Trainer and big time running nerd. I've competitively raced from local 5Ks to the Boston Marathon. I've coached an array of full time collegiate athletes and adults balancing their 8-5 with athletic ambition.
Overcoming the chronic injuries from hypermobility and related dysautonomia has empowered my coaching with the experience to build programs focused on recovery and sustainability. I know firsthand the confidence that comes from understanding your body, so let’s work together to help you understand yours.
In their words
“Training on my own I'd burned out on long run after long run. Emily gave me workouts that built endurance without the crash, plus a support system that got me through every mile.”
“Along with personal engagement so I could understand and practice in real time, Emily provided incredible resources and app access for continued support and reference. She encourages without patronizing you, models without intimidation and her kindness is a beautiful motivator!”
