Martise is one marvelous motivator!! She has worked miracles with our son. When we reached out for Martise's help, we knew our son was in bad shape. He was being timed on a 40 yard dash for his team and clocked out at 7:11. He was the slowest player on his team! We were shocked because he is not overweight and is a healthy kid. To remedy the problem, we took our son to the track and did sprints, sprints, and more sprints. To our surprise and disappointment he actually got slower and was hedging closer to an 8 second 40 yard dash.
Out of sheer frustration, we decided to search the internet for a professional running coach. Then we found Martise and her Green Runner website. We emailed her and she promptly got back to us with a friendly, positive attitude and we were impressed right away. We were also impressed with her stellar career as a champion sprinter and scholar athlete at USC.
On the first day we met Martise, she ran some diagnostic tests on our son and determined he has extremely tight hip flexors and some other deficiencies in his running form that were causing him to run slow. We could tell right away she was a professional with extensive knowledge of anatomy and the muscular skeletal system.
Martise then went through a variety of exercises with him to correct the problems, and then she prescribed a series of drills for us to perform with him at home. We appreciated that Martise was going after the source of the problem, rather than just having him do more sprinting using bad form.
Our son was very motivated by Martise, and he diligently did the exercises she assigned to him. After only 3 weeks of in-person training with her and doing her drills, the results have been nothing short of astonishing! Our son is now running a 60 yard dash in the same time he ran a 40 yard dash. Moreover, he looks like an entirely different person. He is so much more athletic looking and agile when he runs. He is no longer ashamed when he runs and is showing a new found confidence. Martise has performed a miracle and we are so grateful to her!!!
She is a gifted running coach and a masterful motivator!!! Thank you Martise!!!
After signing up for my very first half marathon race, I knew I was not in the shape that I needed to be in so I sought out a running coach and I was blessed to find Martise. She composed a personalized 4 month training plan to progress my mileage and long-distance enduance/speed. During our private sessions she taught me the proper running mechanics, how to run hills, drills to develop my fast-twitch muscles and of course, how to develop my mental strength. Throughout my race, I utilized every tool she taught me. Without her amazing training I would not have been as successful as I was. I am so proud of my results and I have Martise to thank for that!
I was searching for a running coach and came across Martise Moore. I wanted to increase my speed and running proficiency. At our first meeting, she had me run a few times to watch my running form. She instantly corrected my form. I have to say, I ran like a robot and my upper body was stiff. I needed a running coach to help me train for the police academy. I worked with Martise for almost 9 months. She is very professional, compassionate and knowledgeable of her craft. She taught me the importance of mid--foot strikes, running with relaxed shoulders, also the importance of running with a strong core. I entered the police academy this month. I have to say, working with Martise has improved my running confidence greatly. One of the events in the police academy is the 300 meter sprint. I'm 37 years old and the average age of my class is under 24. On race day, I was the second person to cross the finish line. I gained the respect of the class and my Drill Instructors. One of the recruits said, "That old man is fast." I could not have done it without the help of GreenRunner. If anyone is looking for a running coach, I highly recommend Martise. GreenRunner transformed me into a runner. Before I came to Martise, I hated running with a passion. Now I have to say that running is a passion of mine, thanks to the professionals at GreenRunner. Thanks Martise for your help!
Martise taught me how to run hills and incorporate track form into my marathon/half-marathon running! My uphills were decent, but i was always afraid of running downhill after some shin splints years ago. I would always slow down during downhills. She showed me the proper way to run up and down hills, and it works! I now gain some speed on the downhills and I'm able to push up long uphills with proper form - small steps, strong core & pumping arms. I just ran the La Jolla Half and Mountains2Beach Marathon - both super hilly. I only half-trained for the marathon, but I got my 2nd best time ever in both (2:12:40 & 4:38:51), my best being 3 years ago when I was younger. Martise also taught me techniques for sprinting to the finish (like in track) and mental toughness for those hard moments. I'm very happy with my progress!
Martise is a truly excellent coach. When I first decided I wanted to become a faster runner, I was nervous and my goal seemed impossible to reach. Martise was able to help me overcome my challenges in running, fixed my running form, taught me mental strategies to overcome fatigue, and taught me how to be more efficient while running. Her training program is tailored to each athlete and is deployed in a way that is easy to understand and most importantly achievable!
I have bad knees, and Martise's focus on form and flexibility has contributed significantly to a healthy, injury-free running experience.
It was hands down the best decision of my running career to hire Martise as my coach. For anyone looking to run faster, longer, safer, or pass a specific work-related PFT, you should definitely hire Martise. If you put in the work and follow her program, I can guarantee you will pass any running or fitness challenge you may be facing. If I could give more than 5 stars I would!
Thank you Martise!
