Overcome whatever slows you down

Running should be freeing, exhilarating, and empowering. But for too many, it can be synonymous with pain, frustration, and uncertainty.

Maybe you’re…

Afraid of getting injured before even reaching the start line of a marathon.
Fed up with getting hurt every time you increase your mileage.
Worried about what that nagging pain that hasn’t gone away may lead to.
Frustrated with medical providers who don’t listen and just tell you to stop running.
Overwhelmed by the sea of conflicting running “advice” out there.

If any of that resonated with you, it’s time for a change. Take back control of your running and your health. Run smarter - with purpose, confidence, and joy with every stride. Build resilience and overcome whatever slows you down.

Jay Kwon, PT, DPT, CSCS

Hello! I’m Jay, and I’m a Physical Therapist and Running Coach. I’m on a mission to help runners overcome whatever slows them down so they can pursue their healthiest and fullest lives.

Running is core to my identity. The cycle of setting big goals, training hard, celebrating wins, and learning from mistakes molded me into the person I am today. Over the years, the sport has cultured a love for fitness, connected me to amazing people, and led me to breathtaking places.

But like countless others, running also brought me numerous injuries, from tendinopathies to stress fractures. Each time I stopped, the physical pain was nothing compared to the frustration, fear, and uncertainty that it came with, which impacted my work, relationships, and general outlook on life.

Thankfully, quality physical therapy always helped me recover and I was empowered by the notion of building back stronger through exercise. Inspired, I became a PT myself to share this gift with others.

However, my time in outpatient care exposed me to the system’s many flaws. Disillusionment grew, as I witnessed insurance lapses, dismissive attitudes toward runners, and harmful misinformation fail countless people. Runners deserve better.

Resilient Strides is my commitment to do just that - a program designed specifically with the physical and emotional needs of the runner put first. With the same passion I have for my own running, I aim to support every runner with respect, humility, excellence, and curiosity.
