Lauren Hester

Lauren first came to Fleet Feet as a customer starting a bootcamp challenge. Though active growing up, healthy habits fell through the cracks after college, so she came in looking to make a change and get equipped for a healthier lifestyle.

Now she enjoys "paying it forward," as an outfitter, sports bra guru, and 5K coach at Fleet Feet, helping others achieve their fitness and wellness goals (having lost 80+ lbs since she was first outfitted). She especially enjoys the opportunities to educate and connect with others, whether in a fitting or in a training program.

Lauren is a practicing artist, a fitness and wellness enthusiast, and a trivia fan! She loves training toward new running challenges, and in her free time you can often catch her at one of Charleston's great museums, local farmer's markets, or exploring the land's natural beauty.
