Cross the Disney Finish Line Feeling Strong, Proud, and Pain-Free

Run every magical mile without the aches, injuries, and setbacks.
Discover the smarter way to train — built for injury-prone runners who are ready to finish stronger than ever.

Imagine celebrating your Disney finish with energy to spare — not icing sore knees.
Imagine feeling proud, strong, and unstoppable as you cross the line.
It’s not just possible... it’s closer than you think.

If you're like most Disney runners, you've been taught to train the wrong way.

Most training plans expect you to add more miles, strength train for hours, and 'just push through' — even when your body hurts.


But if you're injury-prone, slower-paced, or started running later in life...


Those plans weren’t made for you.

Enter a new training plan — one built for runners just like you.

There’s a smarter way to train.

I created this free training plan specifically for runners like you.

So you can build strength, increase miles safely, and cross the finish line proud, pain-free, and ready for all the Disney fun.

Kind words from clients

“Ali’s plan has helped me go from recovering from my stress fracture to beginning to enjoy running again.  She helped me to build my confidence back and thinking that my goals for my next RunDisney event is totally achievable.” - Rachel C

“I am grateful for this experience and can’t wait for my next runDisney race, I know I’ll be stronger and finish with a smile.  Dr. Ali will teach you to train smarter, not harder!” - Becky B

Hey, how’s it goin?

I’m Dr. Ali

Doctor of Physical Therapy | Personal Trainer | Nutrition Coach.

You’re here because you’re dreaming of crossing the Disney finish line feeling strong — but every training cycle seems to end the same way... injury, frustration, and doubts creeping in.

I get it.
And I’m here to tell you: there’s a better way.

As a Physical Therapist and Coach with over a decade of experience, I specialize in helping runners just like you — the injury-prone, the slow-but-determined, the ones who've been told they're "not real runners."
I've taken clients from "Is this next run going to wreck my knee?" to "I can't wait for my next run!"

Now it’s your turn.
Let’s get you across that finish line — stronger, happier, and ready to soak up every magical moment.

Feeling broken at the finish line isn’t normal — and it’s not your only option. You deserve better.

Have a little time?
