About M2M Run Coaching

Stephanie Cere

Born and raised in the Chicago area, I moved with my family to Atlanta in 1997. I studied Applied Psychology at the Georgia Institute of Technology, and met my husband, Bryan, shortly after graduating.

In addition to two biological children, we adopted two children from the foster care system, and all four are homeschooled. Our days can be chaotic, but we love getting to spend so much time together!

I spend most of my time running (or thinking about running), but I also enjoy reading a good thriller or baking a batch of cookies.

Running Experience

I have been a competitive runner for over 25 years, beginning on my middle school track team. I have completed races as short as the 4x400m, and as long as 100 miles, including both distance- and time-based events.

While I enjoy road running and the occasional track workout, my heart definitely belongs on the trails and in the mountains.

I have completed five marathons, and qualified for Boston twice. I have experience crewing and pacing during 100 mile events, and have competed on multiple team relays such as Keys 100 and Ragnar.

Throughout the years, I have experienced what it feels like to win, but also what it feels like to be in last place, or in some cases, not make it to the finish line at all. All of these experiences have left me with lifelong memories, and have taught me how to overcome failure and continue pursuing goals.
