I am married to a professional singer (not Taylor Swift) and have three kids, including twin teenage girls, and a heeler, Pepper, who ran a trail marathon with me last year. When I’m not outside, I play poker or video games and cheer obnoxiously for the Chiefs and Jayhawks.

If you’re looking to run like the wind,
well, you’ve come to the wrong place.
As an ultramarathon coach, my goal is to help you finish the longest race or climb the highest mountain you’ve ever done in your life. That could be a 50K, a 50-miler or even a 100-miler. I can even help you if you want to do “just” a marathon or a half-marathon, and if you want to climb the 14ers, you’ve found the right guy. I’m someone who can help experienced ultrarunners finish a race they didn’t think was possible or a first-timer who’s always wanted to try trail running. I can be a gentle parent, a strict motivator or someone who helps nudge you across the finish line, even if it’s in last place. I have finished last myself. But I’ve finished. Usually.
Let’s get started.
