Train With the TRT FKT Holder

My mission is to show people that they are capable of far more than they believe and help them achieve the impossible in their lives.

"Adam's training plans are deeply personalized β€” he knows exactly when to push the edge and when to ease off. Your running performance will improve but you'll also learn a ton about yourself."

Coached. Inspired. Transformed.

"Adam's training plans are deeply personalized β€” he knows exactly when to push the edge and when to ease off. His energy is contagious. He lives fully alive and brings that same fire to everyone he works with. Your running performance will improve but you'll also learn a ton about yourself."
"What do you get when you work with Adam? You get weekly custom coaching, unfailing patience and positivity, and access to one of the best ultra runners in the world. Not only have I used Adam for coaching, so has my wife β€” and we've also engaged him to coach our children and friends. You will love him, and you will love your results."
"Training with Adam has been a game changer for me β€” everything clicked into place. He's taught me to truly back myself and given me real confidence when the stakes are high. His knowledge, attention to detail, and individual approach are second to none β€” I couldn't ask for a better coach."
"I've raced better, finished faster, and felt way more prepared than I ever did training on my own. Most importantly, I've arrived at the start line injury free. If you want a coach who's fully invested in your success and knows how to get you to the start line ready to perform, Adam is it."

171 miles around Lake Tahoe in 37 hours β€” the Tahoe Rim Trail FKT

In July 2020, Adam shattered Kilian Jornet's 11-year-old Fastest Known Time on the Tahoe Rim Trail β€” 171 miles of rugged Sierra Nevada terrain with over 38,000 feet of climbing.

"He did it! Adam beat Kilian Jornet's 11-year-old FKT by over an hour! (Plus the TRT is ~6 miles longer now)"
