DSC03692.jpg
 

WHO ITS FOR

We offer both short-term and long-term sport specific coaching with individualized programming for athletes who have goals that can’t be met through our subscription programming services. You can work with a coach for a few months in order to get ready for a specific objective, race, trip, meet, comp, etc. or build a long-term, ongoing with relationship with a coach and work together to choose new goals as time goes on.

HOW IT WORKS

Choose your coach, select single sport or hybrid, then subscribe. Next, you’ll be sent an intake form to fill out so that your coach can learn about your short-term and long-term goals, current fitness level, training history, time available to train, terrain/equipment available and more. Your coach will put together a plan specific for you then publish your first week of training. You will be billed monthly and can cancel at any time.

SCHEDULE

You will receive your custom program one week at time in order for your coach to make any necessary adjustments based on how the previous week went as well as to factor in any life commitments, travel, etc. Your coach will also schedule your rest days. If you need to move training sessions around one week due to life curveballs, your coach will advise you on how to best do so.

COMMUNICATION

Good coaching requires good communication and feedback. Your custom training program includes in app communication and messaging with your coach so you can ask questions, leave comments on your training sessions, give your coach any necessary life updates, get advice on whatever you currently need help with, etc.


MEET THE TEAM

CHELSEA MYNTTI

Hi, I'm Chelsea! I started running in 2018 after stepping away from competitive powerlifting. Signing up for my first half marathon was daunting, but through the process of training, I discovered trail running and the community that comes with it. In my first year of running, I completed my first half marathon, marathon, and 50K — I was hooked!

Since then I've completed several 100-miler races along with various other distances. Along the way, I've found fulfillment in helping others challenge their running potentials and accomplish big, scary goals. I'm all about coaching runners at any level, from beginners to those craving new challenges or distances. Whether you're eyeing your first trail half marathon or aiming to go big with a 100-miler, I've got your back. My approach is all about the big picture by creating training plans that fit your life and make running a fun and positive experience.

In addition to running long and far (and helping others do the same), I’m an avid climber, backpacker, and backcountry skier, currently pursuing guiding professionally in my free time.

WHITNEY DOIRON

Hi, I’m Whitney! I’m a Physical Therapist, coach and hybrid mountain athlete of 10 years currently hailing from Mammoth Lakes, California. I’m an avid backcountry skier, mountaineer, summit scrambler, ultra runner, backpacker, climber, gym rat and skimo racing dabbler.

I’m an in-person Physical Therapist in Mammoth for those returning to sport post orthopedic injury or postpartum and I have a special interest/knowledge in working with higher level athletes with pelvic floor dysfunction. As both an athlete and PT, I understand the mechanics, endurance, strength and power needed to succeed in various disciplines of outdoor sport and enjoy the challenge of catering a program to a person’s individual lifestyle, strengths, weaknesses and needs.

My clients are made up all abilities and all levels of skiers, trail runners, mountaineers and backpackers. I would love to help you reach your own personal summits/goals while being able to say “yes” to more big days outside with your friends and family through fun, engaging and effective programming.

CHRIS BONILLA

Hi, I’m Chris! I hold a Master’s in Exercise Science and am currently a Ph.D candidate in Exercise Science. I’m a lifelong athlete, having played soccer competitively through childhood and dabbling in volleyball and track in my teenage/young adult years. 

After high school, I joined the military and took on longer distance endurance events, including World’s Toughest Mudder in 2015. Shortly after, I was introduced to Olympic Weightlifting and became obsessed for the next 6 six years. During this time, I became a full-time CrossFit and weightlifting coach to share my love of fitness with others. Seeking a new challenge, I prepared and completed a full distance Ironman in 2021. I now maintain a balance of lifting and running while juggling school, work, and dad life.

I enjoy working with folks across the athletic spectrum – lifters, runners, hybrid athletes. I fully understand athletic pursuits often have to compete with life priorities, so I take joy in helping people find ways to achieve their goals within whatever constraints they are operating. What’s important to me is having a badass goal and striving to achieve it!

KRISSY HARCLERODE

Hi, I'm Krissy! I’ve been in athletics for my entire life and in the fitness industry for half my life. I started competing in sport at age 6 and started helping others get stronger and fitter at 18, never looking back. I started backpacking in 2011 which was a my “gateway drug” into mountain sports.

After competing in team sports, triathlons, road running and strength sports from 6 to 29, I decided it was time to step away from competition for a bit. I accidentally fell face first into winter mountaineering and alpine rock climbing in 2019, which soon led to backcountry skiing and ski mountaineering (all in my 30s!). After completing a few unsupported 50k–50mi distances in 2020–2022, I decided to give racing another go in 2023 for first time in over a decade, ending the year with a 2F finish at my first 100k.

I’m on a lifelong journey to become the most well-rounded hybrid mountain athlete possible and I’m fiercely passionate about helping others pursue the same. Juggling multiple outdoor sports at once is tough but doable and I’m here to help you figure it out. Cheers to sending well into our 70s!


WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

CALLY HESS

“If I could give my coaching experience with Chelsea more than five stars, I absolutely would. Working with Chelsea has been the healthiest and thereby most effective coach-client experience I’ve had in over a decade of working with various coaches as an adult. Finding work/life/fitness balance since I started a career in nursing has been extremely difficult, but Chelsea’s running expertise and communication have brought me so much balance, allowing for effective results in what is also a new sport for me: running. I’m so grateful for an incredibly positive experience with a coach like Chelsea because as I have already mentioned, coaches as wonderful and caring as her are very hard to come by.”

AMY CORNISH

“Working with Chelsea has completely transformed how I view and enjoy running. I intended to be coached for only 3 months, as I'd signed up for a trail half and hadn’t ran consistently for 15 years. Two months into coaching I told her I wanted to stick around after my race. Chelsea does an amazing job providing individualized running plans and is very responsive with communication if I have a question/concern. She's been so supportive when the stress of life gets in the way of training or an injury acts up. I used to think coaching wasn’t for me as I’m not an all-star athlete but Chelsea helps reinforce the idea that anyone can be a runner. I have found fun and confidence in running and a huge part has been because of Chelsea’s guidance and support along the way!”

KRISSY HARCLERODE

“After doing the absolute bare minimum to run R3 with Chelsea in October of 2022, it became abundantly clear that I needed a running coach to hold me accountable to be consistent in order to reach my bigger running goals. Chelsea successfully coached me into 7 races (4 of which I podiumed at) and multiple big endurance objectives in 2023. She helped show me what my body is capable when I'm consistent and well fed, prevented me from overtraining, and emotionally navigated me though pre-race jitters, minor injuries and self-doubt over the course of the year. Working with Chelsea made my runs become the best part of my day most days and I'm forever grateful for her guidance and support in this sport.”

LINDSAY NEW

“I've been working with Chelsea since 2022 and love having her as my coach. When returning to trail/ultra running after 2 hip surgeries, I needed help getting back to ultra distances without aggravating my post-op hips. After a negative experience with a previous coach, I was nervous about what to expect but Chelsea has been fabulous. She built my mileage up conservatively, ensuring I was making progress while also reducing risk of re-injury. She made my programming work around travel, climbing trips, my wedding and other life events. Under her coaching I successfully ran two ultras with no hip pain and even PRed my 50k twice! Now she's helping me get ready for my first 50M, maybe even a 100! I highly recommend Chelsea to anyone looking for a running coach who is happy to adjust training to fit your life.”
