Meet your Canberra‑based coaches and explore our full range of ultra marathon coaching services.
Whether you want to improve your Parkrun time, complete your first half or full marathon, or take on an ultra, we have the expertise to help you set and achieve goals — often beyond what you imagined possible. Our running coaching supports athletes across Australia of all levels, with training plans tailored to your lifestyle, terrain, and ambitions.
Started in 2020 by Canberra‑based trail running coaches Dave and Sare, mkUltra.run began as a personal challenge during COVID lockdowns and grew into a small group for running enthusiasts across Australia. We believe there’s nothing “special” about ultra runners — anyone can do it with the right mindset, training, and support. Our mission is to share our passion for trail running, break down barriers, and help you achieve your goals.
