How do you connect with a woman who wakes up before the sunrise with only one thought “how much time do I have for my run today?”


Who spends the rest of her day thinking about how the run went, wondering if she’s eating the right foods, wearing the right shoes and above all going to reach that PR? You talk to her like a real person, not a persona concocted in a board room meeting.

Every runner has questions and on RTTF I give them the honest answers to make every run their best or at least to enjoy the process even when it’s 98% humidity and their coach {waves} says today is a key long run. I’m not here to sell my readers on anything other than the joy of running.

Content Creation

When I graduated with a degree in Journalism, I assumed that meant I’d be a reporter. I never considered a whole new world of writing would open up and allow me to express myself in a way that didn’t involve interviewing Mrs. Jones as her house burned down {hallelujah I’d have been awful}.

Digital Story

From nights spent absorbed in fantastical tales to days spent devouring every running book to cross my path, I’ve always been intrigued by the power of words. Let’s tell a story that’s about more than product details, let’s tell a story that has people lacing up for a second run!

Beautiful Photography

Where words leave off, a great photo can finish the story. As you’ll see on my Instagram feed, I love order and color and taking the time to get the right shot to tell the story, then editing for clarity.

Engagement

Periscope, YouTube, live events, Facebook – whatever the medium, I find ways to connect. Experience the world through the eyes of a passionate runner and coach.

Looking for high quality video like the example below? Please reach out to my video production managers at InspoNetwork.


Ready to see how we can form a long term partnership and find out what I can bring to a project?

Who I’ve worked with


Running Partners:

Run To The Finish reaches a niche audience of runners passionate about improving and finding the right coach, food and gear to make it happen. This sport is about more than the time on a clock, but that doesn’t mean we don’t love finding ways to improve. I partner with brands large and small to help bring their product to the perfect audience.

Travel Partners:

Amanda Brooks has worked with a variety of Tourism Boards, hotels and other travel brands around the world to bring their story to life through social media and personal stories.

Additionally, Amanda has been a selected contributor through full articles and quotes in many of these publications.


It is my goal to work with brands in creative and interesting ways! All requests are reviewed to ensure they fit with the message of RunToTheFinish.com. While I am often compensated for my product experience, I will never give an unwarranted positive review. ALL reviews and opinions are 100% my own, and can not be bought.

Amanda Brooks : Run Coach
SHARE THE ONE that resonates most with you. 🏃‍♀️🏃🏾🏃🏽‍♂️
 
It’s true, I’ll never stop talking about the warm up 😂. But right now the idea that running is HOPEFUL really strikes a chord.💜
 
We show up mile after mile always looking to what’s ahead and what’s possible.
 
Which one hits home for you?

AVOID HITTING THE WALL (save this and review befor AVOID HITTING THE WALL (save this and review before races) -AKA  Bonking. UK friends giggle at that, but it’s a term just like fartlek.
.
It’s that painful moment when your mind tells your legs to stop and it feels like there’s nothing you can do to turn the tides. It leaves emotional scars!🥵
 
WHAT TO DO!
1️⃣Train differently - seems obvious, but consistent training that follows a plan which progressively and smartly builds your miles and strength and speed...ya it works.
 
2️⃣Fuel, fuel, fuel - force yourself to eat before races and long runs even if not hungry.
.
Starting fueling sooner than you think you need to and keep doing it. During races your body is running on more carbs and needs that steady flow of energy. 
.
🧠 Your brain functions on CARBS, stop depriving it or it will tell you to stop running. If food while running is an issue for you, checkout something like @genucan.
 
3️⃣Pacing - Stop going out too fast because you’re excited, it absolutely catches up to you. Ideal is even pacing start to finish.
 
4️⃣Pay attention to your brain. @fitzgerald.matt in How Bad Do You Want it does a great job of showing how the brain can limit performance if you don’t know what’s happening up there.
 
5️⃣Recover better - Stop over training and give your body tools to help it destress from all the work...the best one is SLEEP. I also love @resiliencecbd to help with nerves prior to a race and quality sleep during training.
 
❓❓Helpful?? Have more race day questions?? Or an epic story of hitting the wall?? I wanna know.❓❓

Thanks to @moxie82co for capturing this weird moment, it worked great for this post.
HIT THOSE HIPS!!! I’ve given you a couple hip mo HIT THOSE HIPS!!! I’ve given you a couple hip mobility workouts, now we add strength!
//
🥳For the next 30 days in the Virtual Run Club we’ll be going hard on all the pre-hab work for hips, glutes and abs. Because running isn’t just about the miles.
//
That’s one of the reasons I’ve been consistently doing @insidetracker bloodwork since 2015.
.
It’s helped me identify low Vitamin D causing fatigue or catch my wayyy high cortisol to embrace easy runs as key part of the process.

3 CORE MOVES
|||
You can use these as a progression or do all three, they’ll target the hips, glutes and core in different ways with each variation.
 
Aim for 15 reps prior to a run or do multiple rounds as part of a workout!
 
1️⃣Side Plank Kneeling Hip Raise - Really focus on your core engaging to raise up and keeping your elbow under your shoulder.
 
2️⃣Side Plank Kneeling Leg Raise - Again core should be tight to keep hips lifted, not sagging towards the ground. Then focus on your hip and glute to raise the top leg.
 
3️⃣Straight Leg Side Plank Leg Raise - Engage the core to keep hips high and press the bottom foot in to the ground to really engage your glutes. Slow and steady to remain stable while raising and lowering top leg.
❓❓❓❓
Talk to me!!!
Who’s in for 10 min a day in March?
Who’s gotten blood work to improve their health?
Who’s excited it’s almost spring?
👉👉Me to all 3! And more info in stories!
