hi, i’m carrie
I’m an endurance coach, athlete, and reader. My goal is to provide resources, coaching, and support so that you can make progress, develop discipline, and be consistent with pursuits both indoors and out that bring you a sense of accomplishment and joy.


about the bookish athlete
the bookish athlete isn’t just a book blog. I created this website to help you go the distance in your training and your reading journey. With a blend of endurance sports and reading, you’ll improve self-awareness and “shelf”-awareness with your nose in a book and feet on the trails.
