Mountain Ultra Running Coaching

There is so much conflicting advise around how to train. I’ve been there and worked through it. It’s been satisfying to understand how the pieces fit together and see it show up in performances.

I enjoy the process of learning and passing the knowledge on. I want to see others succeed, and in style. Watching someone achieve their goals is incredibly rewarding. My aim is to give you guidance and tools you need to make this happen.

I take a rounded approach to coaching. This means developing fitness and strength from a science based approach along with equally, if not more, important real areas like fuelling, stomach troubleshooting, movement skills, strategy. We start by looking at strengths, where you can improve, and compare those with the demands of your event. We work on the low hanging fruit, areas that will give the biggest gains.

I’m a UESCA-certified Ultra-Endurance Coach (2023) and a MTA-certified Mountain Leader (2021). I’ve had success in the Dragons Back Race (4th place), completing the Paddy Buckley Round solo and unsupported and setting a FKT on the Goat Circuit.

I offer 1:1 remote coaching, in-person coaching and consultations, specialising in mountain ultra running and multiday events such as:

• Ultra Trail Snowdonia (UTS)

• The Dragon’s Back Race (DBR)

• The Cape Wrath Ultra (CWU)

• The Paddy Buckley Round

• Lakes Traverse

• Lakeland 50

• Pen Llyn Ultras

Athletes I’ve worked with have achieved success in these events and more.
