No copy-paste plans. No guessing. Just a marathon coach who meets you where you are — and builds a clear, sustainable path to where you want to go. Whether you're running your first 5K or chasing a Boston Qualifier, your marathon training plan will be designed to fit your goals, your body, and your real life. Every plan balances endurance, strength, and recovery so you can train with confidence — and arrive at the start line ready to run your best.
Wild Dog Athletics takes a focused, intentional approach to race training — one that prioritizes the right work at the right time. Abby has coached runners through their first 5Ks, guided athletes returning from injury, and supported experienced ultramarathoners chasing new goals. Across every level, the philosophy stays the same: Discipline isn’t about doing more — it’s about doing what matters most. Each training plan is designed with that mindset, emphasizing consistency, recovery, and individualization just as much as pace or mileage. Runners won’t be handed a static template; instead, their plan evolves with their body, their schedule, and their mental readiness. At Wild Dog, race prep is never just physical. It's about building sustainable momentum, developing self-trust, and arriving at the start line feeling capable — not burned out.
Looking for a smarter way to train? Whether you’re eyeing your first 5K or your next marathon, we’ll create a customized running plan that’s built around your goals, your schedule, and your ability. This is coaching designed to help you stay consistent, injury-free, and race-ready.
No more squeezing into a one-size-fits-all plan. Your program is tailored to your schedule, race goals, and recovery needs — whether you’re training for a 5K or 26.2 miles.
You’ll know what to expect on race day — from pacing and fueling to mindset and tapering — so you can show up prepared and proud.
Training includes strength work, recovery strategies, and movement tips to help you stay healthy and strong — even when the miles add up.
You’ll work directly with Abby — an 11x ultramarathoner and experienced marathon coach — for feedback, pacing adjustments, motivation, and more.
We’ll start with a free 1:1 video consult to discuss your running history, your next race, and what success looks like for you.
You’ll receive a custom race training plan — built around your life and experience level — delivered via a shared training app.
As your training progresses, I’ll provide support, feedback, and adjustments so your plan keeps working with your body — not against it.
Choose a plan that fits your goals and your lifestyle. Every tier includes 1:1 coaching, a personalized training plan, and app access.
