Allie started running ultramarathons postpartum, but was fortunate to be able to run through her pregnancy and even ran the day she went into labor! Getting back into running postpartum has been a journey indeed, but going through a range of symptoms helps make Allie a great running coach for women returning to running after baby.
Running is something she knows she'll be able to do for the rest of her life, as long as she takes care of herself. That means both caring for her body, and caring for her mind because she doesn't ever want to get burned out on something she loves!
The only things Allie loves more than running are her family, most importantly her English Bulldog, Roger; yoga, wine, kayaking, drawing & painting, and wine! Okay, wine is just really important here in California.
Coach Mallory

Mallory has been running for over twenty years, including almost ten years running trail and ultra races. She’s trained and raced everything from the 5k, to road half and full marathons, to 100-mile trail races, and everything between.
She ran her first marathon in college, and over the course of her road marathon career has dropped her time by over 88 minutes to a 3:03! In 2014, she gave her first ultramarathon a go, and fell in love with the trail and ultra community and has completed more 50ks than she can count, a handful of 50 milers and 100ks, and multiple 100 mile finishes.
Mallory lives in Berkeley, CA with easy access to allllll the dreamy single-track trails and fire roads in the East Bay area as well as the most amazing road and trail running communities. Her professional background is in education, mindfulness, and advocacy/social change work. This experience lends itself well to supporting others in reaching goals, showing up as their best selves, and using their strengths to benefit the community at-large. In honor of all the things running has taught her about herself, Mallory is passionate about sharing the joys and lessons of running with others.
When she’s not running, Mallory loves skateboarding to the park to play frisbee with her husband and two dogs (Billy and Bonnie!); rock climbing, canoeing, camping and hiking with friends; and playing in the local Balinese Gamelan music ensemble. She also proudly coaches the local high school cross-country team!
