Ironborn Endurance is built on one belief: athletes deserve more than cookie-cutter coaching. Every programme is tailored to real lives—balancing training science with mindset, resilience, and the pursuit of big goals. From first-time 5k runners to ultra finishers and Hyrox competitors, we coach individuals who want to achieve more than the norm.
Our team brings authenticity: Co-founder Rob Graham is an ultra-runner who created Ironborn to deliver athlete-first programming; Co-founder Matt Dove, mountain endurance athlete, thrives on epic challenges like double-Everesting; and Travis Warwick-Oliver, para-trail runner, embodies resilience and perspective. We don’t just talk endurance—we live it.
What we offer: 1-to-1 coaching on TrainingPeaks, integrated strength and mobility, race-specific build-ups for road, trail, triathlon and hybrid events, and limited athlete slots to ensure high-touch support. Every plan is adaptive, every conversation grounded in honesty.
