Fitness isn't what's stopping you.
Most people think going further just means more kilometres. That's usually the exact thing that stops them before they even reach the start line. Piling on weekly kilometres without the strength work behind it doesn't get you further — it gets you injured.
Generic plans are built for people who are already elite. People who can structure life around training, not the other way around. When everyday runners try to use the same plan, it usually falls apart. Whether that's a repetitive injury, life getting in the way, or getting blindsided by everything a shorter race never taught you: fuelling, hydration, feet care, pacing. The conclusion is always the same. This isn't for me. It takes a special kind of person.
It doesn't. You've just never had a plan built for you, backed by a professional who's so confident in your ability he's willing to bet money on it.
I've run and researched ultras for years, and here's the biggest thing I've learned: a generic plan can get almost anyone through a shorter distance. Plenty of people scrape through 20km on willpower alone. Double that distance and the variables multiply — ones you only learn by doing this over and over, not by reading about it once.
That's why I'll go wherever I have to to learn from someone who's actually done it. I flew across the country to train alongside Phil Gore — the backyard ultra world record holder (119 hours, Dead Cow Gully, June 2025), who's also run solo for 152 hours straight as his own personal benchmark. If someone knows something about this sport that I don't, I want to be standing next to them, not reading about it.
I don't claim to be the best ultra runner in the world. I strive to be the most willing to learn — and I'll do whatever it takes to get you to that line.
The deal
You finish, or you get every dollar back.
Four months of coaching. Do the work, and if you don't cross that line I refund the lot.
Not a partial refund. Not a credit towards the next one. All of it.
I can put that in writing because I decide who I take. We start with a low-pressure call. On it, I work out whether I can get you to that finish in four months. If I don't think I can, I'll tell you — and we'll either find a race that's better suited to you, or I'll leave you with advice and next steps for wherever your running goes from here.
Either way, you're not wasting my time by booking it. That's what the call is for.
That's the part that makes the guarantee mean anything. It's on me, not on you.
I haven't found another coach in the country who'll do that.
There are conditions, and all of them are about whether you did the work — every session, every check-in, every call, the fuelling practised, the race-day plan followed. If I change or drop a session, that still counts as done. You're never penalised for me changing my mind. Read the full terms.
Where are you starting?
Pick your distance.
Three short runs in the week and one long one on the weekend, built around your actual week. It gets longer as the block builds. The distance changes the numbers we work off. The system that builds it stays the same.
Thirty kilometres on a trail takes longer than a road marathon. Five-plus hours on your feet, and a descent at 22km that will take your quads if you've never practised one. Same four-month block, same guarantee.
Book a call Finish, or money backMost first-time marathoners don't fail once they start the race. They fail at getting to the start line. Their plan wasn't built for them. They either deal with injury, or the plan eats so much time that sessions get missed. That builds a quiet belief that they're going to fail. So they pull out before they even attempt it. Same four-month build. Same guarantee.
Book a call Finish, or money backFifty kilometres is the ultimate test. It's the distance that shows you exactly what you're capable of. Finish it and you've earned the title: certified ultra endurance athlete. Same four-month block, same guarantee.

Book a call.
We'll work out what you actually need. Got a plan already, whether you found it online or built it yourself? Bring it and I'll tell you what's missing. Not sure yet whether you want ongoing coaching, a one-off plan, or an in-person session? That's exactly what the call's for.
If coaching comes up, it comes up. If it doesn't, you've still got the answers and it cost you nothing. Plenty of people book one of these, get what they came for, and never become clients. That's completely fine by me.
Haven't got a plan yet? Book it anyway. That's an easier conversation, not a harder one.
A few quick questions, then choose a time that suits you.
