Coach: Michelle Gross Daichman
In 2012 Michelle started running solely for the purpose of being able to run races in Disney. After her first Disney race she was hooked, not just on Disney races but running in general. Since crossing her first finish line Michelle has run multiple Disney and non Disney half marathons, 10ks, 5ks and Disney Challenges. She knows the ins and outs of runDisney, the Disney parks, how to capture the perfect the race photo and everything else you’d want to know about running in Disney.
A competitive athlete all her life, when Michelle isn’t in her running shoes she’s lacing up her figure skates. Michelle is a skating coach and 15 time national figure skating champion. She continues to compete for DC EDGE, one of the top ranked synchronized skating programs in the country.
Michelle started training with CCR in 2020 and joined the Timonium store team in 2022. Training with CCR has not only made her a better athlete but has brought so many incredible people into her life.
Michelle can’t wait to share the magic with you!
