Karina hails from Tolland, CT where she spent her childhood swimming, competing in gymnastics, and adventuring through the great outdoors whenever the opportunity arose. She graduated from Colby College, in Maine, where she competed in cross country and track all four years. She still runs competitively with New Balance Boston, racing in events from 3k up to full marathons.
Karina has coached cross country and track at both the high school and collegiate levels. It was during her time coaching that she became interested in the strength and conditioning aspect of an athlete’s competitive training. She earned her certification from NASM in 2008, and now trains athletes of all ages, as well as clients of all fitness levels and backgrounds.
