    Welcome to MEGAMILES! We are a coached run group that aims to: get rid of elitism, intentionally and authentically create community, and make room for all paces and people. Whether you are a first time 5ker or an experienced half marathoner- we have groups for you!

    About me:

    My name is Meg Anderson. I am 33 years old and am so excited to give you MEGAMILES! I am from Gulfport, MS, lived in Jackson, MS for 9 years, packed everything I owned in 2 suitcases, bought a 1-way plane ticket, and relocated to Arequipa, Peru for almost 5 years. After living my best life abroad, I have decided to make my home in Hattiesburg, MS. I am passionate about mental health, am a diehard Swiftie, and am into all thing's coffee. I have my undergrad degree in Music/TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages), and am currently a full-time graduate student getting my MAT (Master of Arts in Teaching)

    I started running in January 2013 because my friend and I decided to do a SuperSprint triathlon. After completing the SuperSprint triathlon, I quickly jumped into a half marathon and ultimately completed my first full marathon one year after starting running.

    My coaching style:

    I strive to push the limit of ‘I can’t’, to become ‘I will’. I believe able-bodied people are capable of running as far as their heart and mind desire. With MEGAMILES, running will be less of an ‘I have to run’ statement, but instead will become an ‘I get to run’ or an ‘I will run’ statement. I am here to provide you with the mentality shift needed to accomplish your big, scary goals. The question I’m often asked is ‘how do you run so far?’ The answer is simple: I want to, believe I can, and I enjoy the journey to get there. My goal for you is the same: to want it, to believe you can, and to enjoy the journey getting there.

    Athletic Certs/Coaching Experience:

    • Completed USAT (USA Triathlon) coaching cert in 2016

    • In process of completing UESCA (United Endurance Sports Coaching Academy) running coach cert

    • Co-founder and treasurer of MSTC (MS Triathlon Club)

    • Coached individuals' distances 5k to 50k from 2016 to present day

    • Group coached for 5k, 10k, half, beginner triathlon, intermediate triathlon, 70.3 triathlon from 2015 to present day

    Street Cred:

    • Completed a 77-mile run in 2025

    • 30+ marathons/ultra-marathons from 2014 to present-day

    • Half Ironman (70.3) in 2014

    • Ironman (144.6) in 2015

    • 3:45 marathon in 2015

    Hattiesburg 5k/10k/Half Program Details:

    This is MEGAMILES’ first program. We have a few different options for wherever you are in training. We have a beginner 5k program designed for anyone just beginning their run journey. It is a run/walk progression. This is for you if you have never run before. We also have a 10k program that is a good fit for those wanting to take on their first 10k, or seasoned runners simply interested in maintaining mileage while still having the group run camaraderie and accountability that the group provides. Finally, we have a beginner half marathon program for those who want to conquer their first 13.1. Or there also is an option of a ‘speed’ program for those who have done a half and are interested in incorporating speed work.
