Jeff Strickland

Head Coach

I am an experienced trail and ultra runner who holds an Ultra Running Coach Certification through UESCA. I live in Colorado Springs, where I spend my time exploring the trails and mountains with my family or on solo adventures. I was first introduced to trail and ultra running over 20 years ago in Buena Vista, Colorado, and fell in love with running as a way to explore. Throughout my running career as a high school and college runner, I had wonderful coaches that inspired me to become a coach myself. As your coach, I will be fully invested in helping you build your fitness to pursue your goals.

I’ve competed in distances ranging from 400 meters to 100 miles. I’ve been participating in ultras since 2014 and have successfully completed Leadville 100 x2, Wasatch 100, and Arkansas Travellers 100.

I offer personalized one-on-one virtual trail and ultra run coaching with a human-first approach. You are a unique individual, and your training should be designed with your experience and motivations in mind and backed up with evidence-based training practices to promote progress and longevity.
