Alison Beder Solway is a debut author, fitness expert, and founder of ABS Fitness—an online platform dedicated to women’s health. With a Master of Science in Environmental Studies from Antioch New England Graduate School, she began her career in environmental engineering, where she developed corporate environmental management programs. Later, Alison chose to shift her focus to raising her family, which ultimately inspired a new path: empowering women to achieve well-being through fitness and a holistic, mind-body approach.
In her memoir, 'The Miles We Run,' she shares her personal journey to motherhood through surrogacy—an experience that involved significant obstacles and taught her the transformative power of hope, perseverance, and strength. Over 25 years later, she drew upon these same qualities while training for and running the New York City Marathon, demonstrating how discipline, patience, and resilience continue to guide her in embracing new challenges and inspiring others.
When she’s not training clients or creating content for ABS Fitness, Alison enjoys running, cooking, reading, savoring a good cup of coffee, and most importantly, living life with her husband and their four children.
