If you want to do it, Ruth can help you get there. When I began running in November 2007 26.2 miles was a long way, 12 months later I finished a marathon. I met Ruth through my marathon training team, but she inspired me before I even spoke to her. Her life story and what she has accomplished including “losing half of herself” is truly amazing. In person, Ruth is even more motivational. When the muscle cramps, exhaustion, frustration, and internal desire start to wane, Ruth steps in and fills the void. She pushes me to break through barriers that I thought I would never reach (never mind surpass) and doesn’t take offense when, at the time, I call her names and make threats to harm her . . . if I could just catch her. It’s like having a life coach, personal trainer, and workout buddy with you and available to you at all times. Ruth doesn’t dictate what your destination or journey should be, instead she enables you to determine what you really want your destination to be and is there every step/mile/rep along the way to encourage you to meet, and exceed, those goals. |

Ruth's intense energy and positive attitude really got me motivated. I hadn't been running in nearly year, I went running the next morning. She reminded me if I want a healthy and active lifestyle I need a healthy and active body and the best time to start is right now! |

Ruth is motivation! Never have I met a person with such a spirit for life and a drive for ambition. Not once have I seen her without a positive push or encouraging word. Motivating her team through constant “you can do it’s” and “your almost there’s”. Unwilling to give up on her team she pushed through the flu to get us through the 26.2 miles of desperate heat and without her constant concern and care I would not have completed and continued my extensive running training. She is a knowledgeable and a gift[ed] coach motivating all she touches. |

For a number of years Ruth has been a continual source of both inspiration and motivation. She is always excited to try new things and looks for the best from herself, and those that she surrounds herself with. Ruth is perceptive in that she provides whatever is needed at the time, whether encouragement, a challenge to reach the next goal, or sometimes just a little tough love. She has the ability to see potential in people even when they cannot yet see it themselves, and works to bring out not only the potential in the person but the self-confidence as well. |

Ruth is a great inspiration to me. Everytime I'm with her she motivates me both physically and mentally. You could say she's my battery charger. |
