About Georgie

I am an experienced endurance athlete and running coach in Calgary, Alberta. I have raced some of the toughest ultras out there - Divide 200miler, Marathon des Sables, UTMB, Canyon Endurance and Sinister 7. So I know what it takes to train and get through tough events.

Coaching Philosophy

I will make the training fun but it will take hard work. I will help you build perseverance, grit, determination and patience. The rewards, trust me, will be amazing! You will feel happier and healthier and you will most certainly be fitter! I will be there with you all the way on your journey! I take a holistic approach to training, incorporating mindfulness, mental strength workouts, strength workouts, injury prevention sessions, cross training and running of course!
