My focus is on coaching Masters + Menopausal athletes, however, I enjoy connecting with runners of all abilities, celebrating their victories, and helping them achieve their best. Don't just take my word for it though. Read some of the things my athletes have had to say about their experiences with my coaching + teaching.

"Becky has shown a dedication to learning and teaching good running form - and just as importantly shows a passion for a holistic approach to health and fitness. Runners (and walkers) of OK, go spend some time with her!" - Jeff, Chi Running Instructor

"At the beginning of 2019 I decided to invest in me and I must say, it is the best investment I’ve ever made. I wanted to learn how to train smarter not harder. I have since been through multiple 5K training cycles. And multiple 5K injury free races. I have increased my endurance and pace time with each training cycle. Coach Croft knows how to motivate you, is very responsive to your questions and concerns and will tailor your program to get you across the finish line injury free!" - Delia, Run Coaching Client

"This is the strongest I’ve felt on a run. Mentally and physically. It is also the one I prepared for the most. Yesterday was a true rest day aside from going to the store to buy food for today. I also ran the entire time. On past long runs there was something that made me stop and walk but I kept running/shuffling the entire time today. Most of the time when I do start to walk it’s because I’m mentally defeated." - Kelsey, Run Coaching Client

UPDATE: "Prior to working with @coach.croft I used an app to get me through 2 marathons but I wasn't getting the results from the app plus I secretly wanted to get my pre-covid body back. The first year with Coach was hard because I thought I knew more and I didn't put in the work during training. So at the 2021 Route 66 marathon I finished in over 7 hours. It was frustrating and cursed the entire second half. The only reason I have that expression {in the photo posted} is because Coach and {a friend} were waiting for me at the finish line.

In marathon number 5 I felt so much stronger both mentally and physically! (I finished over an hour faster) I know that I can get a new personal best and it's tempting to not start trying immediately. But for now, I'm going to recover and have fun with shorter distances because I have a fun new challenge in the next few months."

"Last year I hired Coach Becky to develop an online training plan prior to the Berlin Marathon. The VDOT program linked to my Garmin which was very easy to use and to follow! What I loved about Becky is that she checked in on me, held me accountable and always shared words of encouragement during my training cycle!" - Elizabeth, Training Plan Client

"I met up with Coach Croft to help me fine tune my cadence issues. Her wisdom and eye for form also discovered some areas of imbalance that I wasn't really conscious of until she pointed them out. It's important that as we continue in our sport as recreational runners we get tune ups every now and then just like our vehicles. I know I want to run for the rest of my life and I want to do it as injury-free as possible. So go follow her and if you're local in Tulsa and need a "tune up" or help with your running, I highly recommend her!" - Cindy, Chi Running Client

"Special thanks today Coach Croft for working with me as my running coach! I needed the guidance and planning assistance to meet my goal and she has done wonderful. Looking forward to continuing my training after my distance challenge in May to increase speed!" - Kyle, Run Coaching Client

"After running for more than half my life, a series of injuries (plantar fasciitis, meniscus tear, chondral defect) & surgery had me wondering if this was what getting older meant and if I'd ever get back to it for real. Every time I started upping my mileage or pace, the injuries would recur. Finally, I set aside my natural skepticism to try something that I had mocked as "too woo-woo" a few years back: Chi Running. Well, after one session, Coach Croft diagnosed my gait issues, had me make two quick adjustments, and sent me on my way. With those adjustments, I've been running pain-free ever since, and today I ran for the third time in a week - for the first time since April 2018. I'm wary of exhibiting the zeal of the converted, but for my runner friends who are struggling with injuries, I highly recommend giving Chi Running (and if you live near Tulsa, Coach Croft) a try!" - Leena, Chi Running Client

UPDATE: "... good news: finished Tulsa Run in 1:32:45 - no PR, but faster than my 2006/2008 times. Better still, my knee feels fine, and the tendinitis is under control. Can’t thank you enough for helping me fix my form. On a training run a few weeks ago, my husband saw me from a distance and didn’t recognize me from my gait."

“Mindset is everything, it affects how you approach a problem, a task, or your day. This course was helpful and insightful. I’ve never really stopped to think about what my perfect day would look like until I was asked to write it out! Shazam!!! Coach Croft gets you to look at your habits introspectively and gently gives you accountability. She answers your questions honestly and shows you how to navigate to your own conclusions by shifting your thought process and approach. Great course!” - Delia, 30 Day Mindset Reset Mini Course Student

"I am already feeling so much better and more confident... Just wanted to thank you because everything I have done this week has had more ease and I have my energy back!!!" - Rena, Chi Running Student + Run Coaching Client

"When I talk with Coach Croft , I am continuously impressed by her professionalism, knowledge and experience. Her love for her clients is seen in everything she does for you. Before meeting Becky, I was in a training group to run my first 1/2 marathon. I am a first time runner who start running in December 2021, this running group had cookie cutter plan and I was in pain daily! I was recommended to Becky by a fellow runner! She came to meet me and do a Chi Running session! It was like meeting an old friend! She took me from hurting everyday and wanting to quit to running happy and strong! She caters every plan to the runner and if something isn’t working she will change it! I cannot recommend Coach Croft enough for runners looking for guidance towards their goals. Whether it be running your first 5k, or a Marathon, Becky’s athlete-centered coaching approach allows the coach and athlete to work together to create a program that best meets your individual needs! Don’t wait another day! Reach out to her you will not regret it!!!!" - Shanon, Chi Running Student + Run Coaching Client

"Thanks for helping me get back on track. Feeling really good lately. And don't feel like I'm overdoing anything. Can't wait for my race in July." - Katy, Training Plan client

UPDATE: "I can 100% recommend. I had Becky build me a plan leading into my recent half marathon. I had done two previously but was really just winging it. I would just run as whatever paces felt good at the time, including the dreaded grey zone! I am so glad I had her plan. It gave me a good foundation to continue to build on. Plus the plan synced with my Garmin watch and I was easily able to follow the daily workouts."

"Coach Croft is an amazing person that cheers you along, creates awesome plans, and is not afraid to hold you accountable. Her endless support, humor, and run/workout plan help me crush my first ever half marathon! It was so cool, I signed up for another round instruction for this upcoming fall. Give Coach Croft a chance and you will not be disappointed!!! Lezzz Gooo!!!" - Pete, Training Plan Client

"As an older athlete, I am beyond satisfied with Coach Croft's thoughtful and encouraging methods. My endurance and confidence have increased under her careful, individualized tutelage and I have no doubt that I will be able to complete my half marathon this summer. Best of all, because of her coaching, I am reaching my goals injury free. She is open, approachable and available. I highly recommend!" - Teri, Run Coaching Client

"In my previous marathon training I would always take a rest day after my long runs because I'd be completely exhausted but with this training season I'm able to run far and still enjoy some easy cardio the following day. Love it." - Sara, Training Plan Client

"Coach Becky is amazing! I'm sure all the mentors are but I never want to pass up the opportunity to highlight mine. lol

I didn't have any questions {during our Q+A} yesterday because she and I talk about everything and she helps me prepare every step of the way. I'm so honored and grateful for her as a mentor.

I do love the Q&A because it helps to see we are all still a bit anxious along the way and I don't feel alone.

PS Becky if you don't have your life coach certification, get it! Your ability to empower women is remarkable! The world needs more of you!" - Lee, Coaching Mentee

"As a long time runner who wasn’t making much forward progress, I knew I needed coaching…that was a no brainer. Choosing a coach has to be one of the hardest tasks! My initial choice wasn’t a good fit for me, as I was entering perimenopause and he didn’t understand my changing needs and body challenges. I was SO happy when one of Coach Croft’s Instagram posts jumped up like a beacon in the night! Coaching an athlete remotely can’t be easy, especially an athlete in my phase of life. Becky has met every challenge and concern with grace, compassion and charm. She has come in clutch for me at races IRL, via her online coaching platform and beyond! There really is nothing more encouraging than someone with similar experiences giving you guidance and asking the hard questions. I have grown in strength, speed and endurance since we started working together and only see more hard work and improvements on the horizon!" - Candy, Coaching Client

"I have never used a running coach before and honestly never thought I needed one that all changed when I made the decision to sign up for my first full marathon. I had every intention of training myself and just using various apps and tips I had picked up from running magazines. I found myself not being fully committed and I knew that needed to change. I've been following Coach Croft for some time and knew she was the one I was going to reach out to. The response was immediate and within a couple of days, coach had my program ready and sent to me. The training program was very easy to understand and worked well with my daily schedule. Any questions or concerns I had were replied to within a timely manner. The training program helped me successfully cross the finish line to my very first full marathon. will definitely be using Coach Croft again in the future, can't even begin to thank her enough for helping me!" - Crystal, Training Plan Client

"Thank you so so much for being on this journey with me! you're the first coach 🙏🏼 I've worked with that is intentional and puts so much into their athletes 💞" - Rebecca, Coaching Client

I was going to let you know, I worked out at Orangetheory yesterday. Did a decent amount of treadmill running. I have NO pain in my right knee or hip today. Which is just amazing. I have not run without pain the next day for 2 months. I credit that completely to you helping me with my form! Thank you!! - Tyler, Chi Running Client

"Working with Coach Croft was such an amazing experience! Not only did I feel supported in my plan but I felt supported in my everyday life too. She created a feeling of community and support that I hadn't really experienced before and was invaluable in my training." - Mies, Coaching Client

"I am so happy we met!

... But I want you to know I have gotten immediate improvement on that strained pelvic floor muscle issue I've been suffering with for months!!

... I've been on 30 minute runs both yesterday and this morning following your advice about keeping my pelvis level and taking baby steps directly under my pelvis, and using a wider stance- just working on that little bit has made a huge difference!

... I had such a great time starting my learning of the Chi technique with you and discovering all sorts of interesting things about Tulsa. - Dimi, Chi Running Student"
