Training

Peak Run Performance Coaching

We recommend coming to Golden with a solid base of training so you can make the most of your time with us. And that doesn’t just mean a better finishing time—the fitter you are, the more fun you will have. With focused training you can better manage the strenuous incline and be able to celebrate your accomplishment by enjoying the gorgeous scenery from the ridgelines. This achievement can be possible for any runner who stands on the starting line, but it requires specificity in your training and preparation. 

We recommend looking into COACHING services to prepare you for the challenges that you will likely encounter during a multi-day trail running event held in the mountains of British Columbia. However, not every coach is well versed in the specific training required for a multi-day race like the Golden Ultra. 

At TransRockies, we have partnered with the coaches at PEAK RUN PERFORMANCE since 2016 due to their specialization in preparing for and completing multi-day trail running events. Their coaches, Brittany Peterson, Manu Vilaseca and Carla Rodriguez Dimitrescu, are internationally certified, have personal experience with multi-day trail running events and have coached athletes from all over the world for events such as the Golden Ultra. These coaches are very familiar with the TransRockies race courses, terrain, and conditions you’ll encounter at the Golden Ultra and can help you prepare for the challenges ahead of you!

While we aim to make the Golden Ultra accessible to as many racers as possible, it is a challenging event!
