Coach profile

Hi, I'm Jacob — and I'll see you on the trails.
I came up as a track and cross-country runner, found the marathon at the end of college, and ran Boston before the trails pulled me in. My first ultra was a 50-miler in the Appalachians in 2016; moving out west reignited it, and in 2023 I finished my first hundred, the Run Rabbit Run.

After years of self-coaching, I earned my UESCA certification — first to coach myself better, then because helping friends drop their times turned out to be the best part. My favorite distance is the 100K: short enough to finish in a day if it goes right, long enough that it makes you solve problems.
