ULTRAMARATHON COACHING
Exploring human potential. Going from ordinary to extraordinary.
Preparing for your first ultramarathon, a 100-mile race or your next multi-day desert challenge?
I’ve always been fascinated by what people are capable of under demanding conditions.
Through personalised ultra-endurance training, nutrition, recovery and mindset coaching, I help you build the physical and mental capacity to go further than you thought possible.
WHY WORK WITH ME?
3x MdS finishes. One DNF. Many lessons.
I have experienced both sides of the 250 km Marathon des Sables finish line. My ultra experience further spans 50 km and 100 km ultramarathons, the Swiss Alpine K78 in the Swiss mountains in Davos.
And I’ve coached runners to help them prepare for extraordinary challenges from their first 50 km to 100 km ultra, 100-mile races and multi-day desert races. From the Western States 100-mile race to the UTMB and scorching heat of the Sahara.

The Rory Coleman Method
As a Rory Coleman Approved Coach, I draw on a proven approach to endurance training that combines structure, discipline and consistency with the realities of everyday life.
Developed by ultra runner Rory Coleman, the method has helped runners prepare for everything from their first ultramarathon to demanding multi-day desert races.
Hundreds of runners have completed their first ultramarathon on the method, and around 200 train on it today.
The philosophy is simple: Lasting success comes from consistently improving the standards you hold yourself to every day.
When you raise your average, extraordinary results become possible—and the norm rather than the exception.
Beyond experience
MY COACHING APPROACH
More than just a training plan.
No two athletes are the same. Neither are their ambitions, circumstances or challenges.
That’s why we’ll build an approach around you—your goals, your experience and your life.
The Rory Coleman Method is grounded in four pillars: Standards, Training, Nutrition and Recovery. With mindset and race strategy woven throughout.
Standards
Habits that support progress
Training
Preparation for your challenge
Nutrition
Fuel for endurance
Recovery
Recovery that builds capacity
Extraordinary starts with the everyday.
Small daily disciplines that build consistency, awareness and lasting progress.
• Monitor the essentials: Resting heart rate, sleep quality and daily readiness
• Reflect on every session: What worked, what didn’t and what you learned
• Review progress: Regular weekly coaching conversations to adjust expectations and raise your standards
Training built around your life.
A structured, personalised plan that adapts as you progress.
• Build your endurance: Aerobic base, threshold and long-day training
• Prepare for race conditions: Adapt to heat, altitude and pack-weight adaptation
• Strengthen your body: Integrate strength and conditioning tailored to your needs
Fuel the work. Prepare for the challenge.
Practical nutrition and hydration strategies that support your training, recovery and race-day performance.
• Fuel your training: Develop everyday nutrition habits that support your training and lifestyle.
• Test your race strategy: Practise fuelling during long sessions so you know what works.
• Plan your hydration: Prepare for the hydration and electrolyte demands of your event.
Progress happens between sessions.
Recovery planned with the same care as training, so you can adapt, stay healthy and keep progressing.
• Monitor your recovery: Track sleep, stress and readiness alongside your training load.
• Balance effort and rest: Recognise when to push, back off and take a break.
• Build long-term resilience: Manage training load and reduce the risk of injuries through smart load management
