Coach
Hello! I’m Claude, the founder and head coach of Apex Rises Coaching. Running has been my passion for over 20 years, from middle-distance and cross-country in school to trail running and ultrarunning as an adult. I’ve been coaching for over six years, working with athletes of all levels—from beginners going for their first 5K to experienced runners smashing 100K races.
As a UESCA-certified ultrarunning coach and a SAWFA Water Fitness instructor, I bring a wealth of knowledge to my athletes. I focus on holistic training that integrates physical and mental preparation. I’m also a tech and data enthusiast, using the latest tools and research to create personalized, results-driven programs.
As a husband and father of three, I understand the challenge of balancing training with family and work. My mission is to help you achieve your running goals while maintaining balance in your life.
