Cordillera Endurance Coaching – Performance coach for ambitious athletes & powerhouse professionals

A holistic, science-based path for performance

At Cordillera Coaching, I work with driven athletes and professionals to help them achieve their boldest dreams and goals; whether that be a multi-day adventure in the backcountry, or on the less traveled gravel roads, to those competing for World Championship slots, Boston Qualifiers, PRs and Podiums. I also guide athletes who are no longer interested in racing routinely but want to challenge themselves to live healthier, stronger, and continue to thrive well into their golden years. We’re in this for the long haul! We work to solidify your foundations (nutrition, recovery, mobility, strength) and optimize the time you have available – all within the context of your life. As your life evolves (work, family, health, focus, etc), so must your plan. I challenge athletes sustainably to consistently build towards their dreams.

What the athletes are saying...

I had considered running a marathon for YEARS, but was worried that the training aspect would feel obligatory and forced, and would take away from my love of running. When I finally decided to sign up and train for a race, I spoke to Mikki during our first coaching session and made it clear that my only goals for the marathon were to finish and HAVE FUN. She listened to everything I said and put together a fabulous training plan that was fun, worked with my schedule, and flexible when I needed it to be. She was easily reachable by email whenever I had a question, and our pre-race phone call was incredibly helpful in setting me up for success on race day. I completed my marathon in under 4 hours and had an absolute blast doing it. Thank you, Mikki, for making it such a positive experience, from start to finish!

One of Mikki's most striking qualities is her exceptional knowledge of the sport. Her insights have been invaluable in maximizing my potential, ensuring I train effectively without the risk of injury or burnout. And while she's a self-professed "data person", Mikki respects my aversion to getting bogged down in the numbers. We've struck a harmonious balance, with the only exceptions being the occasional yet crucial checks on baseline HR and FTP.

Mikki has taught me so much over the years starting with the basics and progressing to the more advanced concepts! We have gone from FTP of 130-ish to almost 200. With Mikki I have completed 9 full Ironmans and many 70.3's as well as several BQ qualifying marathons. What I like about Mikki the most is her data driven style of coaching combined with her "we all live lives outside of sport" attitude. She is easy to work with and a pleasure to talk to. Her insight is endless and she always offers structured, meaningful, data-driven, goal driven workouts. We work together as a team to accomplish goals set early in the season. Without Mikki I would not be where I am today mentally and physically as an age-group athlete!!! Not only has she been the greatest coach and mentor but is a great friend as well!!

She's organized, professional and has a great experience as a coach and as an athlete.

Mikki knows that I have trouble building up running mileage due to a 20-year-old Achilles injury that comes and goes. She's worked with me to build run fitness without piling on too many miles so I can race and stay healthy. I was surprised that I could make big fitness gains without necessarily doing huge mileage or lots of high-end interval training. Without her guidance, I might have just assumed that I had to build up to 13.1 or longer for that race (as I had done in the past), but she was able to help me get enough run fitness without all of the high mileage. Amazing!

I surprised myself by qualifying not 1 time but twice for 2 different world events in Aquabike. Wow. That was a first to finally be part of Team USA! It has just been refreshing to work with someone who cares about the mental portion of racing rather than the numbers.
