# Ultra Coach Max
Ultra Coach Max is an online ultra running coaching service based in Liss, offering personalised training plans for runners of all levels — from those chasing their first 10K to experienced athletes targeting prestigious races like UTMB, the Spine Race, and Lakeland 100.
Max combines formal qualifications (Sport, Fitness & Coaching degree, Level 3 Personal Training, UESCA Ultra Running Coach certification) with genuine ultra racing experience, having completed the Arc of Attrition, Maverick Jurassic Coast 50, and 100km challenges. This blend of science and practical knowledge underpins every coaching relationship.
What sets Ultra Coach Max apart is the refusal to force runners into generic plans. Instead, coaching is deliberately woven around real life — work schedules, family commitments, and individual circumstances shape the training approach from day one. Max emphasises holistic development, treating mindset, recovery, nutrition, and confidence as equally important as mileage accumulation.
The coaching style is characterised as supportive yet honest, avoiding both excessive motivation and unrealistic demands. There's no crash training mentality; instead, sustainable, evidence-based progression prevents burnout and injury.
Delivery is fully remote via TrainingPeaks, with fortnightly plan updates, regular session feedback, strength training integration, WhatsApp support, and periodic progress reviews. This accessibility makes coaching viable for busy parents, shift workers, beginners, and seasoned ultrarunners alike.
