Full support for preparing for the famous Dragons Back Race, by someone who has been there!
My aim is to ensure that you get to that start line with the knowledge and confidence that YOU have made the right decisions about kit, nutrition, training, routes and whether or not to take that extra pair of socks! I will support you the whole way and get you both mentally and physically prepared for anything that the mountains can throw at you.
🌍 The advantage of online coaching is it doesn't matter where you are, I can help you as everything is remote. I coach people from all over the world.
Training for this race is complex, especially for those with busy lives. I can help you navigate this by not only structuring a plan to help you succeed, but by answering all those questions and 'what if' scenarios which can cause so much stress.

meet the coachI’m Matt Buck, a Salomon and Suunto Ambassador, experienced ultra runner, and qualified coach.
As a passionate trail runner and Mountain Leader, I’ve completed some of the toughest races and challenges around the world, including the Dragons Back Race. I know exactly what is required to get to the finish line of this race and will use my personable approach and knowledge to help you achieve your dream of reaching Cardiff Castle and getting your hands on that dragon trophy. |
"After entering the Dragon's Back Race, I knew I needed an experienced coach who had completed the race. Matt was everything I could've asked for in a coach. We talked through it all, he gave me a solid, structured plan based around my lifestyle and was always there when I needed reassurance. Thanks to Matt I successfully completed the race and learnt a huge amount through it all. If you're looking for a coach to help you achieve your running goals, I can 100% recommend Matt"
