We are runnersHelp us help you!
At Crozet Running, we are focused on discussing the things that actually matter in helping you improve performance and reduce injury rates. Yes, footwear is important, but just as important is your running form, your training intensity, your recovery and at-home physical therapy, and your nutrition.

Michelle Andersen
Owner
Michelle is an avid trail runner and has run several mountain trail ultramarathons. Michelle is a Newton-certified running form coach and has a passion for getting everyone to believe they can meet their running goals, whatever they are.
As a mom, I know how important running is for my emotional health as well as my physical fitness. Running is my time to release some stress and catch up with my girlfriends. My goal is to ensure every customer is able to get out there and run or walk with whatever their goals are, without pain, frustration, or injury.
John is an accomplished ultramarathon runner and has also competed in everything from triathlons to 100-mile mountain bike races to obstacle course races. His passion is trail running and encouraging parents and families to get out in the mountains.
What I love about running is that the only limits we have are those we place on ourselves. It’s amazing what we can accomplish – or not accomplish – simply by our outlook. Our bodies are amazing machines capable of so much more than we realize. I truly believe that everyone has an inner athlete just waiting to come out if they let it.

Joanne Deale
Fitness and running have been an integral part of Joanne’s life for nearly 40 years! One of her biggest accomplishments was qualifying for Boston in the 1996 Marine Corps Marathon. In the past few years she has gotten into biking and swimming (in addition to running), and has been a top age-group finisher in sprint triathlons in the area.
Staying physically active is my passion! To me, running is an important way to develop discipline and maintain a properly balanced life. Running certainly improves my physical health, but it also keeps me mentally sane! Beyond me, I am most proud of the example that my dedication has set for my two daughters, who are active and fit!
