Mountain Ultra Running Coaching

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

I want to help you reach your peak, or understand what caused a DNF, so we can solve the root cause, make sure it doesn’t happen again and build on it. I enjoy the process of problem solving, learning and passing the knowledge on. My aim is to give you guidance and tools you need to perform.

I take a rounded approach to coaching. This means developing fitness and strength from a science based approach with equally, if not more, important areas like fuelling, stomach troubleshooting, movement skills, strategy. We start by looking at strengths, improvements, and compare those with the event demands, and work on areas that will give the biggest leverage.

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), completed the Paddy Buckley Round solo and unsupported and set a FKT on the Joe Brown’s 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.
