Running a trail race is a fantastic experience, and a must for any runner (or non runner!). With my support I can ensure that you approach that start line safe in the knowledge that you are mentally and physically prepared for what lies ahead. I'll support you the whole way and ensure that you get an achievable training plan that fits around your lifestyle needs and commitments.
Whether you are a first timer or an experienced runner, I can help you achieve your goals.
Across more than 10 years, I have coached all ranges of abilities, from first time trail runners who have never done a race before, to podium chasing elites who are continuously pushing to get that next victory. Everyone gets the same level of support, whoever you are and whatever your goal is. No goal is too big or too small.
I am a Salomon and Suunto Ambassador, mountain leader, experienced ultra runner who has completed some of the toughest races and challenges across the world, passionate trail runner and of course, a qualified coach, with experience of running trails of all kinds. I feel confident that I can help you achieve your trail running goals, whatever they might be.

"Matt is a truly fantastic coach. Having only ever ran a half marathon before, I signed up for a multi day ultra, which Matt helped me train and prepare for. He was extremely professional, and supportive from the beginning, giving me confidence in my own ability and allowing me to look forward to my race - rather than dreading it! His detailed training plans are easy to follow, and he gave great advice when I was dealing with niggles whilst upping my mileage. I managed to complete the run, injury free, and in a better time than I would have ever imagine! Couldn’t recommend him enough! Thank you Matt!"

"Matt coached me for my first (and second!) ultra marathons and I can highly recommend him. I'd been running for 20+ years before working with Matt and work as a PT myself, but I can honestly say that I learnt so much from his coaching. He really knows his stuff and is super supportive. I know I wouldn't have been able to complete or enjoy these challenges as much without his help. Thank you, Matt!"
