Ultramarathon coach — 50K to 100-mile.
Ultras reward patience and punish ego. Online 1:1 coaching built around aerobic capacity, fueling discipline, and time-on-feet. From first 50K to Western States qualifier.
What the coaching looks like.
Aerobic capacity first
Z2 discipline for the first 12 weeks. We build the engine before we touch intensity.
Fueling rehearsed
Gut training is non-negotiable. We rehearse race nutrition on every long run, every weekend.
Race-day strategy
Pacing, aid stations, drop bags, crew plan, night running — all decided before race week.
What you get.
- Back-to-back long runs progressed off real recovery data.
- Hill power-walking sequenced for course-specific demands.
- Strength training to protect knees, hips, and back for the late hours.
- Race-week and race-day plans rehearsed in week 18+.
- Direct messaging access — same coach, every week.
They put in the work.
Here's what came out.
“Breno took me from a 5K runner to a full Ironman finisher. 5K 16:57, 70.3 in 4:30, and my first full at IRONMAN Arizona in 9:35 at age 39. The plans fit around clinic, the lab, and three kids — nothing was wasted.”
“Two years with Breno: 26 minutes off my 70.3 and a sub-11 full Ironman. The progression was patient and the workouts were the right ones at the right time.”
“Unparalleled value. Breno builds a methodical plan that actually targets the weaknesses you'd rather not look at — that's why it works.”
“I finished D2R2 180k — 19 of the 20 climbs are genuinely steep — and I finished it better than I expected. Breno had me ready.”
“Running faster. Breno taught me how to actually run easy so I could race faster — and now I'm running both faster and further than I have in years.”
“Busy parent of three with a full-time job. The flexibility in how Breno builds the week is what makes this sustainable for me — the training fits the life, not the other way around.”
“Personalized, motivating sessions. Breno meets athletes wherever they are — beginner or experienced — and the work shows up on race day.”
“A comprehensive, easy-to-follow plan that works for people with busy lives. Nothing feels arbitrary — every session has a reason.”
FAQ
How long should I train for an ultramarathon?
24–32 weeks for a 50K or 50-miler off a marathon base. 32–52 weeks for 100K+ if you're new to ultra. We build aerobic capacity, fat oxidation, and time-on-feet — in that order.
Do I need to run high mileage?
Less than you'd think. Time-on-feet and back-to-back long runs matter more than weekly miles. Most 50-mile athletes thrive at 55–70 mpw with one big weekend.
How is ultra coaching different from marathon coaching?
Fueling and time-on-feet replace pace as the metric that matters. We coach Z2 discipline, gut training, hiking power-walks, and night-running practice for events that cross sunset.
How much does ultra coaching cost?
Phoenix $350/mo or ThunderBird $750/mo (capped at 4 athletes). Ultras need the deeper coaching tier from week 1.
