Coach Miki McConaha


Hello there! I'm thrilled to be joining you on your running/adventure journey.

     I am a wife and a mother of 3 wonderful children and 3 dogs.  Not only am I a run coach but am also a middle school teacher/tutor. I've been passionately involved in running since 2013, taking part in a variety of races ranging from 5Ks to marathons. However, in 2020 I discovered my love for trail running. Starting with the challenging Leadville Marathon, I've since completed multiple 50Ks and three 100-mile races. My son also took on the challenge of running the Leadville Heavy Half which I ran with him!  

     Among my proudest accomplishments to date are completing both the Leadville Trail 100 and the Run Rabbit Run 100 within a single month. These experiences have taught me the importance of setting audacious, yet attainable goals.

     As a certified Ultra-Running coach with UESCA, I possess the knowledge, expertise, and enthusiasm necessary to take your dreams to the next level. Together, we will not only fine-tune your running skills, but also focus on the mental toughness needed to accomplish your goal.

     My other passion is the great outdoors! I am an avid hiker and backpacker! I have climbed 48 of the 58 14ers here in Colorado. Climbing to the top of the mountain is a sight worth striving for!  Some of my all time favorite mountains are Snowmass, Mt. of the Holy Cross, and Maroon/North Maroon via the Bells Traverse. The Lower Muley Twist Trail in Capitol Reef, UT was breathtaking!

     So, whether you aspire to complete your first 50K or tackle a longer running challenge, improve your performance, or climb to the top of a mountain, I am here to guide you. Let's work together to transform your limits into awe-inspiring milestones!

Looking forward to partnering with you,
Miki McConaha
