Personal Trainer: Katherine M.
My name is Katherine and I am one of the Certified Personal trainers at SCSU! I got into fitness my first year of college when I went to a Zumba class and loved it. I then hired a personal trainer because I wanted to feel healthy and learn more about fitness. Since then I have gotten my NETA PT certification because I wanted to help guide people through their fitness journey and support them in becoming their best self!

Walking and biking trails as short as 0.6 miles and as long as almost 7 miles will give your muscles a workout.
Four start from the St. Cloud State campus and provide scenic walking and biking opportunities; others begin nearby.
