About Wade

I'm Wade, a technology executive, ultrarunner, and family man based near Redmond, WA in the Pacific Northwest. Over the past 25 years, I've built developer products and services, giving me a unique analytical perspective on endurance coaching. My programming and data analysis background enables me to take a methodical, evidence-based approach to training programs. As a lifelong learner, I'm driven to excel and master new skills across all aspects of life.

Coaching Philosophy

My approach to coaching combines scientific principles of exercise physiology with a methodical process of observation, analysis, and experimentation. Just as in scientific research, we'll work together to understand what works best for you through careful data analysis and controlled adjustments to your training, while maintaining personalized attention to your unique needs.

I believe in creating strong coach-athlete relationships built on trust and clear communication. Whether you're preparing for your first ultra or aiming to improve your performance, my coaching philosophy emphasizes both the physical and mental aspects of training. Through systematic refinement and data-driven insights, we'll create sustainable training programs that fit your life while progressively building your capabilities to achieve your ultrarunning goals.
