"Since having Shannon as a coach over the last 2 ½ years, I have improved my running, biking and swimming.  When I first met Shannon to evaluate my running form, I was running about 8:30 minute miles.   After weekly structured workouts, including track, I have taken off almost 2 minutes per mile in the 5k through half marathon.  I am now consistently placing in my age group for many running and triathlon events.  Most importantly, I have stayed injury free because Shannon changes my running volume depending upon what I have in the upcoming months rather than pushing hard all year long.  Shannon’s positive attitude and encouraging approach to fitness helps keep me consistently motivated.  In addition to her training expertise, she is very knowledgeable in nutrition and local events."

"I have known Shannon since I was Junior in Highschool (2002) and pretty much have worked with her since... either on Nutrition, fitness and conditioning, massage therapy, and triathlon workouts. She is truly the whole package and wants all her clients to succeed. I can attest that you will see results when you work with her. I came into the best shape for my lacrosse season in college and everyone noticed. If you truly want to achieve your potential work with Shannon!"

"Without Shannon performing the scraping treatment on my achilles, I probably wouldn't have been able to continue to train without giving myself a stress fracture... and that's something you can't have when
you're preparing for the world championships.  Huge thanks and mahalo for your help, Shannon."

"Shannon is one of the most gifted and talented individuals in the fitness, wellness, coaching, and training business in the Philadelphia area.  Her extensive background in running, triathlons, coaching, massage therapy, and athletic and fitness development, coupled with her degree in exercise physiology, enables Shannon to provide uniquely professional and broad-ranging services that benefit not only the elite athlete, but also the novice.  Shannon used her entire skill set, including psychological motivation, in coaching and advising my daughter, Elisa, to the Pennsylvania private schools championships in cross-country and track events.  Shannon organized, supervised, and monitored all the phases of Elisa’s training, entered her in various meets, ran with her, coaxed and encouraged her, and helped her reach a high performance level quickly.  Shannon is extremely bright, dedicated and diligent, and always pro-actively selects the right strategy for the athlete, to optimally improve his or her performance and strength and fitness levels.  She makes the entire process challenging, but also enjoyable.  We highly recommend Shannon if you want to accomplish your fitness and training goals, regardless of your level of athleticism.  No one is better."
