I am a lifelong trail runner and lover of the mountains. My goal is to use my knowledge, education, and experience to help guide you to your ultra running goals. I enjoy coaching athletes who want to work hard and buy into the long term plan because great endurance success comes from consistency over time not a magic workout or two. I also love helping runners who have been dealing with injuries fix the underlying cause and get back to running pain free. Contact me for a free consult.
