For founders and executives who want to run 100 miles without becoming a full-time athlete

Boardroom tobelt buckle

Done for you, elite running coach service. You show up, I take care of the rest.

Watch: how a 60-hour-a-week CEO earned his first buckle in 9 months
See if you qualify 2-minute questionnaire. No credit card. I only take 6 done-for-you clients at a time.

Coached by someone who actually does this

Not a guy who read a book about ultras. An elite ultramarathoner who races, wins, and has the buckles on the wall to prove it.

Executives who came in busy and left with a buckle

"I run a company with 200 employees. I did not have time to figure out gels, shoes, or a training plan. Pierce told me what to do each morning and I did it. Nine months later I finished my first 100."

[Client name] Founder, [company] — [race name] finisher

"The blood work changed everything. Turned out I'd been training on empty for years. Fixed that, and my long runs stopped falling apart at mile 18."

[Client name] CEO, [company] — [race name] finisher

"Best money I've spent on myself. Full stop. My team says I'm a different person in meetings."

[Client name] Managing partner, [firm] — [race name] finisher

You already know how to suffer. That's not the problem.

You built a business. You've pulled all-nighters, made payroll on a knife's edge, closed deals that everyone said were dead. Grit is not what you're missing.

What you're missing is time and information. Which shoes for a 100-miler in Utah versus one in Georgia. How many grams of carbs per hour before your gut revolts. Why your ferritin matters more than your mileage. When to use poles. Which vest doesn't chafe at mile 70.

Most executives try to figure this out at 11pm after the kids are asleep, cobbling together Reddit threads and podcast clips. Then they show up under-fueled, in the wrong shoes, and DNF at mile 62 with a stomach that quit two hours earlier.

You don't run your company that way. Why train that way?

You delegate everything that isn't your highest-value work. Legal, accounting, ops. This is the same move.

You give me your race and your calendar. I handle the plan, the fueling, the gear, the labs, and the adjustments. You wake up, look at your phone, and do what it says. That's the whole job.

Everything handled. Delivered to your door.

Questions executives ask before they apply

I've never run more than a half marathon. Is this for me?

Yes, if you can commit 6 to 10 hours a week. Most done-for-you clients start with a 50k or 50-miler and buckle within 12 to 18 months. The questionnaire will tell you which tier fits.

How much time per week does this take?

Early blocks: 5 to 7 hours. Peak blocks: 10 to 14, with most of it on one long weekend day. The plan is built around your calendar, not the other way around.

What's "in person" if I don't live near you?

Monthly sessions are either at your location or mine, travel included. Done-for-you clients also get the training camp weekend.

Why is blood work part of a running program?

Because low ferritin, vitamin D, or testosterone will sabotage a 100-mile build no matter how good the plan is. I've seen it wreck more executive races than bad shoes. We test first, then train.

What if I pick remote and want to upgrade?

Every dollar you've paid toward remote credits against done-for-you if a spot opens.

Is there a guarantee?

No. There are no guarantees in life, and there aren't any at mile 80 either. What I guarantee is that I'll do my part. The plan, the fueling, the gear, the labs: all handled. Your part is to show up and do the work. Nobody can run the miles for you.

See if you qualify Takes 2 minutes. You'll get a recommendation and next step.

P.S. Six done-for-you spots a year is not a marketing line. It's the number of people I can physically train in person while still racing myself. When they're full, the application closes until someone buckles and graduates.
