After years of suffering from plantar fasciitis, shin splints and stress fractures during my triathlon and marathon days, I knew there had to be a reason I kept having these injuries. I also had a burning goal to break 3:40 on my marathon time. 40 years old, I decided to hire Mark Curtis to help me eliminate these injuries and to help me build my running technique to accomplish my marathon goal. After following his protocol, learning a more efficient way to run by utilizing a quicker turnover, maximizing the flow of motion and incorporating a new running technique, I eliminated ALL my running injuries! Also, introducing his warm-up drills before every run helped prepare my body for every run and continues to keep me injury-free. Best part of all was that I qualified for the Boston Marathon with a marathon PR of 3:24 as a masters athlete.

Mark gave me the core principles applicable to myself while participating in local triathlons. He provided techniques to improve what little skill I had. His technique to train is motivating making you feel empowered so you can do anything. He kept things simple and helped me build my confidence. Mark has trained me to be the best me I can be, both in sport and relationships. His training and example have made me a better triathlete, husband, and father to the most important people in my life. Thanks to Mark, I can now swim, bike, and run faster and stronger than I ever thought possible. I can now brag “IRONMAN” and “Escaped from Alcatraz” the rest of my life thanks to his amazing training techniques and support.

Mark is an awesome guy, hearing his stories is one thing. Having lived through stories with him is another, mark changed my life when I was a young kid in a small town in Idaho going from a horrid middle school runner to a top 10 ranking in the nation for the 1500min track heading into high school. The thing what mark changed in me wasn't all physical, it was a mindset and to this day because I spent years training with Mark I am always ready to face what's next head on in business or when I lace up for my next race... So much respect and love for you man... Still getting after it today.. maybe I'll see you in Boston!
