"I can’t say enough good things about GRIT Running Center!! Chris helped me go from a casual runner to completing my first marathon feeling strong and confident. Every treadmill workout was purposeful and the guidance I received made all the difference. GRIT truly lives up to its name, it’s where determination meets results!"

"When I first walked into GRIT, I just wanted to fix my running form for a workout competition. A few sessions with Chris and Z later, I was training for a marathon. That’s the kind of impact this place has. Chris is incredibly intentional—he listens, challenges you, and somehow sees your potential before you can. I came in hating running, and now it’s become a big part of my life. GRIT is truly something special."
