My name is Austin Newblom. I never imagined running would define me—I despised it growing up. But a 2015 motorcycle crash that shattered my leg and arm changed everything. As a former wildland firefighter I discovered my true passion in ultrarunning, pushing past limits in races like Cocodona 250 and Coldwater Rumble 100M. I even met my wife at Greenhorn Ranch 50K. After over a decade fighting wildfires, I founded 3000 Feet Coaching in McKinleyville, California, where I live with my wife, dog, and cat - my biggest supporters.
