About Josh
I coach a youth (k-8) run club and also volunteer coach for my local elementary school's Cross Country program. Outside of my youth coaching, I specialize in ultramarathon coaching. Helping runners achieve what they think is nearly impossible is a passion of mine. I truly believe that anyone can complete and ultramarathon.
Coaching Philosophy
I want anyone who wants to run to be. able to run for the rest of their life. Therefore, when I coach I coach with longevity in mind. I also believe that even the busiest person can train for and run an ultramarathon. Training does not have to take over your life. With the help of a coach, you can make training fit into your life, not your life fit into your training.
