What is overlap?

Overlap Running comes from the idea that all aspects of running are connected. Our bodies, our communities, the help we seek and the people we bring onto our team are all linked. We perform best when there is overlap.

My name is Hannah Breedlove and I’m a UESCA certified running coach based in Philadelphia, PA. I recently moved here from Baltimore with my fiancé, Sam, our dog, Eno, and our two cats. I coach runners of all levels who are looking to increase their performance or learn more about the sport. I am passionate about meeting you where you are and building off of your current foundation, whatever it looks like to work toward what excites you.

My style of coaching is to show up as your teammate, motivator, sounding board, and go-to resource for questions and answers. I approach coaching by looking at the whole athlete and the whole person. I’m here to offer accountability, support, and knowledge, whether you are preparing for your first 5k, trying to PR in the marathon, or just love running but want more structure.

Running should serve you. Together we’ll look at where running fits in your life and find a way to build a relationship with it that supports you, making you feel strong and confident! It’s so easy to get caught up in the pressures and comparisons, so I coach my athletes to train the mental side of the sport as much as the physical side. How can we best work together so that I’m structuring a plan that balances what you need from the sport without it feeling like a chore?

Answering that question is my goal as your coach.
