“Training for the Leadville Trail 100 is no small feat—but doing it under the guidance of Coach Steven made it not only possible, but deeply rewarding. From the start, he built a plan that was tailored to my lifestyle, fitness level, and goals. But what stood out the most was his ability to adapt and guide me through serious challenges along the way. During training, I dealt with both plantar fasciitis and compartment syndrome—injuries that could have easily derailed my progress. But thanks to Coach Steven’s thoughtful programming, strategic adjustments, and constant communication, I was able to stay on track without making things worse.
Every check-in, workout, and pep talk was filled with intention and care. Coach Steven didn’t just prepare me to cross the finish line—he helped me discover a new level of resilience and self-belief. I went into the race not just physically prepared, but mentally ready for the highs and lows of an ultra, and I owe so much of that to his coaching.
If you’re considering a big goal and want a coach who genuinely listens, understands endurance training, and knows how to bring out your best—Coach Steven is the one.”
