Meet Libby
Hi, I'm Libby. I started VITAL Ventures at 58 because I believe some of our best adventures are still ahead of us. I'm an ACE Certified Personal Trainer and NYS Certified Hiking Guide, and every plan I build starts with one question: what will get you ready?
Whether we train side by side on the trail or you follow your plan from another city, you won't do it alone.
What you’ll get with VITAL
People
A small-group in your corner. Train together on the trail or check in from another city, and come home with friends for life.
Purpose
A real goal on the calendar. Something big enough to get you moving, and keep you going, at any stage of life.
Plan
Step-by-step coaching in strength, endurance and fueling, in person or remote, so you arrive ready and finish strong.
From "I could never" to "I actually did.”
All 15 of our 2026 travelers rated their adventure 5 out of 5.
Your next "I actually did" starts with a conversation.
Tell me where you are today and where you'd love to go. We'll map the first step together.
