About Frank

When I trained for my first ultra, I had no idea what I was doing, just a big goal, tired legs, and a stubborn love for the mountains. Since then, I’ve learned that good training isn’t about perfection. It’s about consistency, listening to your body, and having someone in your corner. I coach because I love seeing people surprise themselves. If you’re ready to take on your first ultra, I’m here to guide you, cheer you on, and help you enjoy the process. "Every muddy, beautiful step of it".

Coaching Philosophy

I believe coaching is about more than just training plans. It is about understanding you as a whole person. Everyone’s journey is different and my job is to help you find your own path to the finish line especially on technical trails where mindset is just as important as miles. I value steady progress listening to your body and celebrating every win big or small. Together we will focus on consistency joy and resilience turning challenges into growth and making sure you enjoy the ride as much as the goal.
