RUNNING PHYSICAL THERAPY & COACHING IN MINNEAPOLIS

GET BACK TO RUNNING...
BUILD TO WHAT'S NEXT

I help busy runners overcome recurring injuries, build strength, and return to the running they love.

Hi, I'm Dan. 

I've been a runner since 2001, and have raced everything from the mile on an indoor track to a trail 50k, with lots of fun detours in between.
​
As a Doctor of Physical Therapy and RRCA-certified run coach, I thrive on helping you bridge the gap from injury rehab to performance, whether that means virtual rehab coaching, in-person physical therapy evaluation, or digitally-supported strength and run coaching.

Let's break through those running barriers together!

What Breakthrough Athletes say...
