Gail moved to Murfreesboro from Mississauga, Ontario, Canada in March of 2012.  She trained for her first half-marathon to ‘keep a friend company’ and hasn’t stopped since. She has run several half-marathons and marathons including New York/Chicago and her most favorite - Boston – qualifying and running in 2007, 2008, and 2014. When she’s not at Fleet Feet, coaching, or running with her crew around Murfreesboro, she can be found chasing her two adorable granddaughters anywhere and everywhere they want to go. Gail spent 14 years as a swim coach (and instructor) in Ontario and has coached swimmers from development to national level.  She loves to share any and all words of wisdom she has acquired to other athletes when and wherever possible. “With all the running we do here, you HAVE to share stories.” SEE you on the Greenway !!! 

Demetria started running in 2012, after a friend, who is a double amputee did the Army Ten Miler with a hand crank bike shortly after he was injured in Afghanistan. Since then, she has completed the Marine Corps Marathon, Richmond Marathon, numerous half marathons and other distances. Her favorite place to run is anywhere with dirt, rocks and mud. In 2018, she ran 40 races to celebrate turning 40 years old. She had one extra race she called “Run to Grow On.”  Like with every runner, she continues to chase that PR. She loves hitting the gym and spin classes at Garage Barre + Bike as much as she loves hitting the trails. She loves spending time with her husband Ray and they have two dogs, Lupin & Luna. 

Jordan has grown up in Wilson County and been an avid runner for most of her life. Attending college at Cumberland University, she has a bachelors degree in marketing that she is thankful she is able to use working in her favorite industry.

Corey has always been highly energetic and often runs counter to the crowd. He grew up in Lynchburg Tennessee and has a Bachelor’s of Fine Art from Austin Peay State. He started running recreationally in college for mental clarity and focus. He trained to complete his first half marathon in 2010, he has since completed many half marathons, numerous 10 milers and countless 5Ks. Now, with over 10 years experience under his belt, his next goal is to complete a full marathon and an ultra event. “Being often described as overly enthusiastic, I dive head first into everything. One of the most helpful pieces of advice I’ve been given is ‘Sometimes you need to slow down to speed up!’, I find this rule highly applicable to most runners!” Corey hopes to enrich not only the runs, but lives of every person he encounters at Fleet Feet through genuine care and open hearted kindness.

Ellen found her love for running later in life. Looking for a way to clear her mind, she laced up and took off one evening after work and discovered it's impossible to focus on anxiety when you focus on your body responding to the run. Ellen has completed various 5ks, 10ks, half marathons, and two Ragnar Relays. She also had the priveledge of coaching distance runners for two years during her time teaching at MJHS. When not on the road, ellen enjoys long hikes and kayaking!

I started running in 2017 when a neighbor invited me to join her and her group of friends for a run.  I became hooked.  I love the goal setting, the sweat, and the challenge of it, and those wonderful women became precious friends. Some of my favorite things are cheering my kids on in their various sports, going on a hike with my family, or coaxing one of my kids to go on a run with me.  I am happy and thankful to be a part of the Fleet Feet team, helping others find products  that enable them is a great way to spend my day!
