About
Dream Run Camp Staff

Matt Fitzgerald
Head Coach
Matt started running on April 19, 1983, one day after watching his father complete the Boston Marathon. This began a lifelong love affair with the sport. Having completed 50 marathons of his own, authored more than 30 books, cofounded the world’s largest online provider of endurance training resources, and coached dozens of his fellow runners to their goals, Matt lives by the motto, “Let your passion, not your ability, decide how far you go.” That’s why he created Dream Run Camp–to enable runners of all abilities who share his passion for the sport to see just how far they can go.

Lauren Clement
Assistant Coach
Lauren left a great job in her longtime home of Austin, Texas, and moved to Flagstaff just to be a part of Dream Run Camp. Folks, that’s what chasing a dream looks like! A licensed veterinarian, Lauren now divides her time between providing end-of-life pet care (you won’t find a bigger animal lover) and making sure every Dream Runner has a great experience (often by running with them). Having only discovered running in her late twenties, Lauren is making up for lost time, setting PR’s left and right and relishing the journey.
