About

Run with Nutrition is owned and operated by Certified Holistic Health Coach, Running Coach and Personal Trainer, Karen Welby.

I am a graduate of Lehigh University where I received my Bachelors of Science in Marketing (and a minor in Track & Field!). I am a Certified Holistic Health Coach and a Board Certified Member of the American Association of Drugless Practitioners. I received my training from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, where I was trained in more than one hundred dietary theories, learned innovative coaching methods with some of the world’s top health and wellness experts and studied a variety of practical lifestyle coaching methods. I work in internet marketing where I manage social media platforms, e-newsletter, and public relations for various clients.

Meet Karen

I have many years of experience with running, fitness and exercise, both personally and professionally. I have experience as a Collegiate Cross Country / Track & Field Coach with a specialty in Mid-Distance and Distance running. During my time at Stevens Institute of Technology, I coached athletes of all levels and abilities. I currently teaches group exercise classes, work as a Personal Trainer and help teach weight loss/nutrition education sessions at Innovation Fitness Solutions.

My personal experience with running began in 8th grade, when I decided to join the Track & Field team. After competing at the National level in High School, I pursued a Division 1 collegiate athletic career in Cross Country / Track & Field on an athletic scholarship at Lehigh University. My collegiate career focused on competing in middle distance events, with my main races being the 800m and 400m. (If I had to pick I liked the 400m more but was better at the 800m!) During my senior year of college, I was named Track & Field team captain and established a new school record in the outdoor 800meter – and other relays. Running has been a huge part of my life over the past 15 years and I continue to compete in a variety of road races throughout the Northeast.
