Hi, I’m Nicole.

I help female masters runners move better, run stronger, and reclaim their power in midlife and beyond.

HERE'S THE TRUTH:

Many exercises we (PT's) were taught in school are a waste of time and money for runners. We were not given specific training on "how to work with runners."

Over the past 25 years, I’ve acquired a running specific toolbox, and worked with hundreds of runners who felt stuck, frustrated, and unheard.

They didn't need generic exercises or passive modalities without a plan.

They needed another runner to understand, believe in their abilities and give them hope with an individualized plan.

It was impossible for me to do that "working for the man", so I left the "traditional" PT setting more than ten years ago and created JUMPSTARTRUNNING.

Now, I get to help runners the way WE DESERVE to be helped - a holistic approach to reclaim strength, rewrite our story, and run forward with power and longevity.

HOW CAN I HELP YOU?

THINGS HAVE CHANGED...

I know what it’s like to feel the shift—when running starts to feel different in your 40s and 50s. When the old formulas for training, recovery, and motivation just don’t work the same way anymore. When the body whispers (or screams), and you start questioning if your best running days are behind you.

And for the ladies that have been "blessed" with fluctuating or lack of hormones? The ONE THING we do for ourselves that is supposed to reduce stress is now causing more!

I’m right there with you—not just as your physical therapist and coach, but as a woman with hormonal hopscotch, a runner, and a human navigating the complexities of midlife.
