I wanted to thank you both from the bottom of my heart for starting the Academy and online community. You guys helped a physically broken and down-and-out gal finished a marathon the way I always wanted to, healthy and happy. Thank you again! -Emily H.

I can’t say enough great things about MTA! Angie and Trevor are absolutely amazing with their podcast and support! I really enjoy the private Facebook group full of runners on similar goals from all over the world. I’ll be using their training program again for my next marathon. -Melisa Robles

I RAN the entire 26.2 miles and finished strong. Every one of you allowed me to achieve this accomplishment 10 months after I quit smoking, 9 months after I began running, many years after I chose to be alive. -Gary T.

Just a moment to brag and thanks MTA for the support in running they gave me. I contacted MTA, joined the Academy and they coached me every step of the way thru my first half and full marathon. -Gregory C.

Almost half way through marathon training and finished up month 8 of becoming a runner. Feeling on top of the world . . . Thanks to this community for all of the support, you all are the best! -Jessica K.

I am elated about an almost 16 min PR at this race. Your amazing training plan and encouragement made this possible. The fact that you not only coach but are out there doing it yourself, pushing the limits and leading by example is a huge motivator. Also, the MTA community as a support has been amazing. Wendy S.
