In terms of coaching, I don’t coach from a pedestal. I am not naive, I have ultras under my belt but there are people out there with hundreds under theirs. This is a work in progress and an opportunity to share my passion for running, whilst still doing exactly that. I coach from the trenches.

Meet Adam

Long time athlete. I was a good tennis player, but only a mediocre runner growing up; I never made top-10 on my HS XC team. I started to find competitive success in running only in my late 30s, after moving to Denver. Training is part, but not my whole life. Balance is needed for long term viability
