COACH

Jill Chisholm
Road Runners Club of America (RRCA) Certified Coach, Founder
Hi, I'm Jill Chisholm. I've spent much of the last decade committing myself to the sport of running. In 2013, I founded Sole Sisters Running Club, an all-woman running club based in Massachusetts, which boasts over 300 members. I dedicated many years growing and fostering this club and supporting athletes of all abilities by providing a safe and encouraging environment for them to develop as runners. I currently serve as an Emeritus Board Member to this thriving New England running club.
I'm am an adult-onset runner who took up the sport as a busy stay-at-home mom to 3 boys. My running experience is quite diverse. I went from someone looking to run her first marathon with the goal of completion, finishing that marathon in a time of 5:08, to an accomplished competitive marathoner. I recently completed the 2019 Philadelphia Marathon (my 11th race of that distance) in a time of 3:05, placing 2nd in my age group at the age of 48.
I have a passion for helping athletes of all abilities succeed, whether it's the newer
runner looking to get fit or the runner looking to set personal records or qualify for the Boston Marathon. I'm here with you every step of the way.
