Jacqui Meadors is a born and raised Sioux Falls Woman who has been running for the past twenty years.  She loves running not only for the exercise, challenges, and races, but also for the friendships and bonds that she has created over the past several years.  In fact, she has met both of her very best friends through running - - as well as many other special friendships.  Currently she is at home with her three children: Claire, Nora, and Lauren, but for ten years she worked as a math teacher in the Sioux Falls Public School system and also spent nine of those years coaching.

                Her coaching career began at Axtell Park Middle School, where she instructed cross-country and track for three years.  She then moved to Lincoln Senior High School, where she coached cross-country; during that time she was part of both Championship and Runner – Up State “AA” teams.  It was certainly a joy and highlight of her life to work with talented, caring, and dedicated young boys and girls.  Additionally, she spent three years coaching triathletes from the Des Moines based team, “Z3.”  Her area of expertise was the running component.

                Jacqui has run several races, amongst them: Boston, Twin Cities, New York, Phoenix, Manitoba & Fargo marathons, numerous half and ten mile races, as well as 10K and 5K’s for tune-ups.  At this point in her life, Jacqui is looking forward to helping women in all aspects of their running – whether it be creating general training programs or specifics workouts, such as track, speed, tempo, or hills.  As a student of the sport, she strives to help other women maximize their running potential.  Running is a part of her life and she loves sharing that with others!
