Dusty R.

—Lee Larsen, triathlete, sailor, mother, and professional (Testimonial)

‘In 2006, I decided I wanted to learn how to weight train but gyms intimidated me and I didn't want to injure myself. I then met and began working with Dusty, who was the strength and conditioning coach for my son's high school varsity baseball team. Dusty looked at me during one strength workout and said, "You need to commit to an event and train for it. How about the Tiburon Triathlon?" I thought she was crazy! Why on earth would I do that? But as it turned out, I'd never been given better advice. With Dusty’s coaching I was prepared for and executed the race easily. I would recommend Dusty for this type of strength training, motivation and workout coordination without hesitation. I'm in great shape and have an experience that will last in my memory for a lifetime, as well as a commitment to the Breast Cancer Cause for as many years to come as it takes to find that cure.

—Susie Orelind, website designer and mother (Testimonial)

‘Dusty is helping me train for my first half marathon. If you tell Dusty your training goals she always helps you reach them.’

—Deborah Barrolaza, stylist and permanent make-up artist (Testimonial)

‘Dusty taught me how to run correctly—how to conserve energy, the importance of the right body position, to remember to have a focus, and where the focus should be. Dusty has the ability to see all these things and more.’

—Annelise Bauer, attorney and mother (Testimonial)

‘Dusty is amazing. After a 13-year hiatus and having three children, I decided to start playing soccer again. I played and had a fantastic time, but there was nothing worth noting about my performance. Then I worked with Dusty, who researched special exercises, stretches, and plyometrics that would benefit my soccer game. We focused on sprints and general strength training. This year I scored 16 goals in 10 games, more than I had scored in any season. I became faster and stronger because of the personalized, sport-specific work I did with Dusty. The change has been truly remarkable.’ (Note: Annelise used her skills to score an impressive victory at the 2008 San Francisco Great Urban Race.)

—Ed Hyman, forensic psychologist (Testimonial)
