I'm a 40-year-old husband, father of four, and Colorado Springs resident. You might know me from my YouTube channel, UltraTrailSteven, where I share my passion and experience in trail and ultra running. With years of hands-on knowledge in running gear—everything from shoes and watches to hydration vests and recovery tools—I’m all about finding the right gear for the journey. For me, nothing beats the peace and clarity of running in the mountains, pushing limits, and finding freedom on the trails.

My coaching philosophy centers on personal growth, joy, and tackling challenges head-on! Trail running in the mountains has been my own path to growth and happiness, and I see races as the ultimate celebration of a well-earned training block. I value a strong work ethic and am inspired by athletes who share that drive. One of the greatest rewards in running is looking back and seeing the measurable progress we’ve made. I’m passionate about helping others break through their perceived limits and achieve what once felt impossible. My motto? DO HARD THINGS—and I’m here to help you do exactly that!

I have been trail and ultra running since 2018. I have won 4 ultra marathons overall, completed five 100 mile trail races, and I completed the Leadville 100 Trail Run, Leadville Trail Marathon, and Leadville Silver Rush 50 Mile race in the same year. I love ultra running!
