Online ultra trail running coaching that goes all the way.

Trail and ultra running rewards the complete athlete. Not just the fittest, but the most prepared - physically, mentally, and strategically. That's the kind of athlete I help you become.

Who I am

I'm Kevin Van der Straeten — ultra trail runner, UESCA-certified Running Coach with Ultrarunning specialisation, host of trailrunner.tv, and CEO of two companies. I bring a background in Orthomolecular Medicine and NLP to coaching, which means I look well beyond the training log.

I train with a professional support team of world-class coaches and specialists, and I've spent years learning from the best minds in endurance sport. That knowledge doesn't stay with me — it goes directly into the athletes I work with.

What makes this different

Most coaching stops at the training plan. Mine doesn't.

I take a 360° approach - covering training structure, recovery, nutrition, strength, mindset, and the science underneath all of it. Every athlete I work with gets genuine individual attention, not a templated programme with their name on it.

I also understand what it means to perform at a high level while running a demanding professional life. If you're a CEO, founder, or senior professional trying to balance serious athletic ambition with serious work responsibility - I've lived that tension, and I know how to make it work.

Who this is for

I work with a small number of highly motivated trail and ultra runners - any level, anywhere in the world, through 1-on-1 remote coaching. What I look for isn't a specific race résumé. It's dedication. Athletes who show up consistently, engage seriously with the process, and are ready to invest in getting better - across every dimension that matters.

Training camps

For athletes who want to go deeper, I host immersive training camps at Moleneinde 10, my dedicated B&B in Belgium. Individual focus, trail terrain (unfortunately, no mountains), a full gym and sauna on the doorstep.
