She initially turned to running as a way to escape and clear her head after having children. However, she started experiencing knee and ankle injuries that hindered her running progress.

Miranda reached out to me after seeing an ad on Facebook and decided to give it a shot, despite feeling skeptical. With the guidance and support of the Fix My Running program, Miranda was able to overcome setbacks, adjust her training, and build her running endurance.

She now feels confident and optimistic about her running future, with goals of running a half marathon and continuing to improve her speed.
