HELLO! My name is Jack McPheron and I am the President and Head Coach of The Motivated Runner LLC.
I have been running for 13 years now and you could say I have my Master’s in both Running and Motivation from the school of hard knocks. I ran all through Middle School, High School and College and have experience at every distance from the 400 to the Marathon. I now compete in road marathons and half marathons along with triathlons. I have run the Steamtown Marathon, Boston Marathon, and New York City Marathon with a PR of 2:49:36. I also recently became an Ironman at Ironman St. George with a time of 13:13:31. There is nothing that excites me more or makes me happier than running.
I formed this company in order to deliver runners coaching services based on my knowledge of both running and motivation from the past 13 years. I am seeking to share my passion with runners around the world and help others achieve their goals and dreams. By doing so, I am rewarded with the pure joy I hope to have each and every day of my life.
The Motivated Runner LLC is unique because many other coaching companies leave out the important factor of motivation. I have been studying the psychology of motivation since I began running and have been collecting a massive repository of motivation as well. I know exactly what you need, when you need it to stay motivated and focused on your goal. I go above and beyond for my clients and am always there for them. My training plans are solidly based on principles from Jack Daniels, Hal Higdon, Danny Abshire, and my own personal experience. The methods are tried and true and here to help drive you to your next PR.

I have nominated you for the One Lovely Blog Award! http://chroniclesofpassion.wordpress.com/2012/05/26/one-lovely-blog-award/
Thank you for checking out my blog. Not only are you a great runner, you write very well too. I enjoyed reading a out your mom!
Cool blog and website. I stumbled across it whilst looking for the band that composed the song from the Salomon Running video. I share your sentiments on that video and the song and its become one of my favourite songs to listen too whilst out on runs. Well done too for following your heart. It’s always inspirational to see people finding the courage to take a step into the unknown and move off a path that isn’t right for them. We always think we need to know where we are going before changing the path our life takes but the problem is you will never find the right path until you get off the one you know is wrong. It takes courage to do that though and not many people manage to take that step. It sounds to me like you have done the right thing for the right reasons and I’m sure it will make you happy and feed your soul.
