Hi, I'm Courtney — the runner (and mom) behind Driven Run Co.

My running journey started young, lacing up alongside my dad for 5Ks on Air Force bases growing up. That early love for running never left — I've carried it through three pregnancies and plenty of miles behind a stroller since. Running has met me in every season of life, and I've learned that the goal was never about perfect conditions. It was about showing up.

That's why I built the 8-Week 5K Training Guide: a simple, no-nonsense plan that meets you where you are. No confusing jargon, no unrealistic mileage jumps — just a clear, day-by-day path from your very first mile to crossing your first 5K finish line.

Inside, you'll get a full training calendar, pace charts, mileage logs, and a race-day guide, all built around the idea that progress beats perfection. Whether you're brand new to running or coming back after time away, this guide is for you.

Because every mile forward means you're stronger than yesterday.

— Courtney, Driven Run Co.
