Last January in Houston, Fiona O’Keefe crossed the finish line in 1:07:42, making her half marathon debut the fastest ever by an American woman. At age 23, this young runner has an incredibly bright future.
Fiona specializes in the 10k and the 5k right now and–fun fact–she accidentally broke her 10k PR in the middle of her record breaking half.
Coach Claire asks Fiona about her incredible day in Houston, what her favorite workouts are to prepare, and how she handles good and bad days mentally.
And then we talk about the REAL reason we wanted to have her on the Run to the Top today. We are thrilled to announce that Fiona is joining our team of expert coaches here at Runners Connect.
Learn about her coaching style and what she plans to bring to the table to help each and every RunnersConnect athlete discover their very best!

Magnesium Breakthrough from Bioptimizers.
Supplementing with magnesium before you go to bed has been shown in scientific studies to…
- Increase in muscle oxygenation during high intensity exercise
- Reduce inflammation
- Significantly improve sleep quality
- Improve aerobic exercise capacity when training.
When you’re looking for a magnesium supplement, make sure you take one that is organic and has all 7 unique forms of magnesium.
My recommendation is Magnesium Breakthrough from Bioptimizers because it’s made with the highest quality, organic magnesium and contains all 7 critical forms. Most other magnesium supplements are synthetic and only contain one or two forms of magnesium, which is simply not enough.
For an exclusive offer go to magbreakthrough.com/runtothetop and use code run10 to save 10% when you try Magnesium Breakthrough. Plus, they offer a full refund up to one year after your purchase, no questions asked.
