“I have never had the change and improvement in my body like I have since starting the Rugged Athlete program. Having a professional coach with Wildland experience has made all the difference.”

“Austin helped me approach training with an elevated perspective, keeping me focused on building capacity to endure, both physically and mentally. In the process of training for the Black Canyon 100k, Austin's training plans and guidance were crucial in helping me achieve a 10 minute marathon PR at CIM two months prior.”
