Your coach will take into account your unique schedule and life stresses to further develop and tailor your plan to YOU.

HOW IT WORKS?
START SMALL, DREAM BIG.
We’re a values-driven coaching organization that believes in the power of support through community.
Microcosm is all about the small things that add up to really big dreams. The 20-second hills that will make you a champion mountain runner. The long, aerobic base building days that will drop minutes, or hours off your next road marathon. The daily micro-adventure that any training session can be when you’re exploring your backyard, or tuning in to a new audiobook on the treadmill or stationary bike.
OUR COACHING TEAM.
We offer a multidisciplinary coaching team, with experts in mental health, nutrition, mental performance, sports science, ultra running, marathon running, as well as skimo and mountain endurance. Athletes have access to a wide range of expertise and experience through our community, as well as their individual coach.
DAILY FEEDBACK.
Busy athletes need hard-working coaches. Our athletes practice reflection and building awareness around their training through daily check-ins following each work. We provide four to five points of feedback on your training sessions per week to keep you on track in a busy life. Our coaches are accessible and responsive and will update and tailor your training plan based on your needs and life circumstances to help you sustain the process over months and years. Our check-ins accentuate the positives, take into account life stress and help build connections between the coach and athlete that overtime lead to big breakthroughs.
LIFE HAPPENS.
Injury, school, work, travel, family – you’ve got a lot going on. If something comes up in life or training, we’re available to help guide you and make any adjustments to your training plan so you can stay on track toward your big goals! We’re here to help you navigate the highs, lows and everything in between- so you can train like the pros while balancing the unique demands of your life.
STRESS.
The body knows stress, not miles run, or hours of volume. We’ll work with you to create a program that fits into your busy life, and help you develop time and stress management techniques so you can train more effectively.
