Your choice. Your trail.

We guide mountain, ultra, and trail adventurers — especially masters and professionals — toward sustainable, awe-filled excellence.

Through devotion over dogma, we help you practice the practice: choosing what’s real, and refining what works.

Training with Heretic Trail is your lab of one: structure with ease, effort with joy, mastery through curiosity.

Our services

Every adventurer has a trail they once thought was out of reach.

Heretic Trail exists to make that trail real—through expert coaching, intelligent structure, and the kind of devotion that turns possibility into practice.

You bring the ambition; we bring the map. Together we’ll build the capacity, resilience, and rhythm to meet the terrain as it truly is.

Every plan, camp, and one-on-one partnership begins with curiosity and builds toward sustainable, specific excellence.

  • Full-service, adaptive coaching partnership.

    Designed for athletes and adventurers pursuing ambitious or complex goals who value expert oversight, dynamic planning, and close communication.

  • Personalized structure without full coaching.

    Built for independent adventurers who want a purpose-built plan and periodic expert guidance without continuous oversight.

  • Pre-designed program for self-guided use.

    Ideal for adventurers who want a ready-made, proven framework built on Heretic Trail principles.

Behind Heretic Trail is a simple idea: remove before you add, refine to the essential, and rebuild with intention.

Most training is out of balance—

too much of what you don’t need more of, too little of what you do, and without an understanding of your own lab of one.

When you strip away the excess, you create space for what matters.

Train with clarity, and endurance becomes a form of art.
