About Alejandro

My own transformation fuels my coaching. I went from carrying extra weight and feeling disconnected to finishing 100-mile races across continents and terrains — Sahara Desert (Marathon des Sables), Arizona, Utah, Florida Keys, Volcanos in Nicaragua and Swiss Alps. I’m also studying Ultra Endurance Sports Nutrition to better support athletes with personalized fueling. Those miles taught me patience, smart training, recovery, and mindset. When not coaching, you’ll find me on the trails or traveling lightly with my family. I love helping every runner write their next inspiring chapter.

Coaching Philosophy

Ultramarathons are less about racing others and more about the honest conversation you have with yourself over many miles. My approach is practical, compassionate, and individualized. I blend UESCA principles and ongoing Ultra Endurance Sports Nutrition studies with real lessons from the trails.
I focus on sustainable progress, a strong aerobic base, smart strength work, recovery, and the whole athlete — sleep, fueling, mindset, and life balance. Whether your goal is a first ultra or chasing bigger dreams, we build a plan that fits your life and evolves with you.
I coach with patience, encouragement, and realism — a trusted partner who listens and celebrates every win along the way. Ready to grow? Let’s run. 🏔️
