Coaching built around decisions,
not templates

Most problems in ultra training come from small, repeated decisions that don't quite fit the athlete. My role is to help you make better decisions over time.

01 — Plan

Season-first planning

We start with your races, your life, and your constraints. Then build a season that supports steady progress — not perfect weeks.

02 — Train

Ultra-specific thinking

Fatigue management, durability, fueling, pacing, and long days on tired legs. Training decisions made with ultra reality in mind.

03 — Adapt

Ongoing adjustment

As stress, sleep, work, and recovery change, the plan changes too. Steady progress, not forcing a schedule that no longer fits.

Quiet progress, real results

"Claude is the quiet engine behind my success. He shapes each programme around your life, your goals, and your recovery. I've become more consistent and more confident than ever before."
Christili MSouth Africa • Ultra runner
"Even though we're in different towns, the coaching feels very hands-on. The structure is clear, the feedback is consistent, and I always know why I'm doing what I'm doing."
Harry PUnited Kingdom • Trail runner
"This is more than just workouts. The biggest difference has been better decisions, better pacing, and feeling prepared instead of guessing."

Hi, I'm Claude.

I've been running for over 20 years, completed more than 300 races, and spent the last 7 years coaching athletes across road, trail, and ultra-distance events — including 100 km winners, UTMB du Mont-Blanc finishers, and an up-and-coming professional athlete.

Training is grounded in exercise science and real-world data — but never at the expense of the human side. Behind every number is a person with limits, stresses, and ambitions. The best decisions come from combining what the research says with what the athlete actually needs.

"Training should support your life, not consume it. Long-term consistency always beats short-term heroics."
