About

Riley has been running consistently since they were in high school and started running ultras when they were in college.  When they discovered ultra trail running was a sport, they dove in headfirst - running their first 50k before ever completing a marathon and proceeded to make all sorts of mistakes in training and racing.  Riley has learned quite a bit since then!  Outside of running, Riley is a bicycle mechanic and hopes to learn more about bicycle frame building.  They enjoy riding bikes as a form of transport but, when it comes to recreating, mostly still prefer running.

Riley holds multiple course records on the east coast, including Vermont 100k and Cayuga Trails 50k.  They also placed second at the 2022 Javelina 100 miler to earn their Golden Ticket into Western States.

Coaching

Training and racing should be fun and fit into your life in a way that feels meaningful to you.  This means I will design a schedule to help you achieve your athletic goals, but there is always room for variation, especially if it brings more fun to the process!  My focus is on long term athletic growth, and loving training is a key part of progressing over time.  We will focus on building consistency instead of going for one-off epic performances so that you can race to your full potential.
​
Running is a team sport, and working with a coach is a collaborative process.  This means we will have daily communication via the training log, and I will respond to texts and emails within 24 hours.  When a phone call would be beneficial, we will schedule a time that works for both of us.

​Cost: $140/month
