My coaching relationship with Pat Chance began in 2014, when I needed to train for the Bay Bridge 10k run. A daunting goal for me as I was neither fit nor a passionate runner. I must add, Pat is 15-years senior to me, and she was as determined as hell to help me reach my goal of running the entire course within an acceptable timeframe. She is fearless and she took on the challenge to be my coach and mentor. 
Over an eight-week training period Pat focused on weight-loss, strength, stamina, eating habits, nutrition, both cardio and weight-training. We did interval training, outdoor running on a flat terrain and we ran up and down hills and bridges! We worked out in the gym, and she also provided me with exercises to do at home. Safety and well-being were always at the forefront of all our workouts. She joined me every session, working alongside me, encouraging me all the way.
From my starting speed of a 13-minute mile I ran the entire race and finished in 61 minutes, a 9.8-minute mile. I could not have done it without Pat. After all these years I still use Pat’s teachings and techniques when I work out and I always recommend her. She is an experienced, trained, qualified fitness instructor suitable for everyone regardless of the fitness goal. She’s the best, call her now, you won’t be disappointed!
