PROOF NYC • RUN COACHING & NUTRITION
COACH + REGISTERED DIETITIAN
Runner for life. Nutrition expert. Marathoner. The coach who will remind you that the honest answer is often: it all depends.
10× NYCTRAINA LIFETIME OF RUNNING
Alba has been a runner since elementary school, pausing only during her pregnancies. When life allowed, she found her way back, discovered New York Road Runners, and became an NYRR member in 2013.
She runs the New York City Marathon every year. Her next long-range goal is even bigger: complete a marathon in all 50 states before the age of 50.
MISS “IT ALL DEPENDS”
That affectionate nickname comes from Alba’s most honest coaching answer. Nutrition and hydration are personal: the right strategy depends on the runner, the distance, the conditions, the training, and the gut.
She is passionate about diligent gut training because she has lived the result herself. By focusing on gut training alone, Alba eliminated pit stops during long runs and improved her performance. Her message is simple: train your gut and your body effectively, and you can run for life.
CREDENTIALS
COACHING STYLE
“I aspire to inspire before I expire!”
Alba coaches NYRR Group Training and measures success by the moments runners carry her words with them—getting out the door, holding on late in a race, or saying afterward, “Your words kept me going.”
“Give running a chance. It can be more effective than therapy—and the best part is that it’s free. Well, you’ll need shoes and clothes, but you get the idea.”
English, Albanian, conversational Serbo-Croatian, and Spanish
Tempo run—because every workout has a purpose, and tempo work fits her current goals and fitness.
The Reservoir in Central Park
The TCS New York City Marathon will forever have her heart.
