17 Runs
By Garnet Morris & Olivia Chadwick
Olivia Chadwick—a young mother and self-critical personal trainer—first met insurance magnate Garnet Morris at 6 am on a winter morning in Saskatoon, Canada. Chadwick's task was to help prepare Morris for the grueling,100-mile Kananaskis relay, but she had reservations—about his coachability as well as her ability to reach him while juggling her own professional, familial and maternal struggles.
Through mutual hesitations, their seasons-long training schedule led to profound and unexpected conversations. As it turned out, the coach needed coaching on self-esteem and self-forgiveness—as well as someone to believe in her as she rebuilt her own strength.
