WATERFRONT MARATHON WEEKEND UPDATE:

Oct 16/11 - Awesome races by Marathon Dynamics Runners!

"Michelle C @ 36kmBeing coached by Marathon Dynamics has been the one of the BEST experiences of my life. They provided the right tools to work with to help me achieve my personal best. Since joining MDI I went from a 3:12 Marathon to a 2:57 Marathon. I wouldn't have been able to achieve that without the preparation and planning that MDI offers with personalized training plans and great coaching support."  Michelle Clarke
