The TNC Team

Current TNC Team:

Michelle Baxter, AK. Since having her first son and joining TNC in 2015, she has notched PRs in every distance she has raced! She recently won Moose’s Tooth Marathon in 3:06, just 10 months after her son was born. Wow!

Oh, Alaska 🙂

Lindsey Burgstahler, MN. In the last 4 months, she has lowered her 10k PR by 2 minutes (44:45 from 46:41), and her 10 mile down to 1:10:08 (from 1:14:44)!


Sara Conrad, MN. Sara has been on fire in 2015! She set a huge PR at Boston, and then another PR at TCM later in the year (3:10). She has also dominated the world of triathlon, lowering her 1/2 Ironman PR by 10+ minutes and finishing in 2:27 at Nationals.

Andrew Howard, TX. Since joining the team in 2014, Andrew has set PRs in every distance he has raced. He is now faster than he was when he raced in college.

Bart Johnson, MN. Bart came to Coach Nichole in 2015 with two very high goals: to lower his collegiate 5k PR of 15:19 to sub-15, and to run sub-2:30 in the marathon. We accomplished the first goal in 2015 when Bart ran a 14:55! Now we have our sights set on the marathon goal at Grandmas in 2016.

Jeff Lanners, MN. Jeff didn’t know if he was fast enough to be coached in 2014, but reached out to Coach Nichole just “to see”. Since then he has lowered his marathon PR 30 MINUTES: 3:20 to 2:40. His next goal is to race in the low to mid 2:30s. Need I say more? He’s a believer.


Amy Olson, MN. In 2014 she debuted in the marathon in a crazy-fast 3:15! At the age of 39, none-the-less! She then went on to win the Master’s division at the 2016 Fargo Marathon. She and Coach Nichole are excited to continue to crush masters records!
