Coach: Jeni Herrera-Mullar
Jeni’s running journey began in middle school when she joined her school’s cross-country team. Although she wasn’t the fastest runner on the team, she found joy in the camaraderie of running with others who shared the same passion. She continued running through high school and into college and graduate school recreationally, participating in everything from 5Ks to marathons.
Things took a drastic turn in 2022 when Jeni was diagnosed with Guillain-Barré syndrome. Injust a week, she went from being an active person to unable to stand or walk. After a year-long recovery of relearning basic movements, Jeni found herself drawn back to running, this time with a deeper appreciation for the process and a newfound purpose.
Now a semi-competitive Master’s runner, Jeni has completed races from 5Ks to half marathons and is proof that persistence, mindset, and consistency are more important than speed. As a coach, she emphasizes the power of setting realistic goals, embracing challenges, and building a strong foundation—no matter where you’re starting from. Running is for everyone – parents, students, and people of all ages and from busy walks of life.
Living in Parkton, MD with her husband, two boys, and two dogs (her loyal running partners), Jeni is committed to helping others discover the joy and personal growth that running can bring, whether you’re a beginner or an experienced athlete. She believes that running is for everyone and that forward progress—no matter the pace—is what truly matters.

Additionally it would be helpful if runners have a watch to assist with time-based runs.
