My name is Laura Barreca and I am a doctor of physical therapy as well as a certified run coach who specializes in working with runners!  I have been running since I was 14 years old– I ran throughout high school as well as college at SUNY Geneseo where I competed at the national level.  Post collegiately, I have been exploring the half marathon and marathon world as well as continuing to enjoy running with friends & exploring new places.  I absolutely love the ability to combine movement through running and physical therapy into my every day work & life.  I have run 3 marathons so far: New York City Marathon in 2022, Chicago Marathon in 2023 and Boston Marathon in 2025 as well as various half marathons and shorter distances.  The running journey continues and I can’t wait to help you on yours!
