Remote endurance coaching for trail runners, ultra athletes, military, first responders, and firefighters who refuse to leave anything on the trail.
I'm Jonathan Fuller — Clinical Exercise Therapist with a BScKin and a Master of Science in Physical Therapy, and an ultra-endurance athlete who has toed the line at some of the most demanding events in North America.
I don't coach from the sidelines. I've finished the Canadian Death Race, run Iron Legs 100km, survived The Divide 200, and competed at the Lone Wolf Backyard Ultra. I know what it takes to keep moving when everything in you says stop.
My background in physiotherapy and exercise science means your training isn't just built on grit — it's built on evidence. Every plan is designed to get you to the start line healthy and to the finish line strong.
Three coaching tiers designed around how close you want to work together — and how big you want to race.
Full remote coaching with regular check-ins, adaptive training, and a coach who knows your body, your goals, and your terrain.
High-touch coaching for athletes targeting podium positions, 100+ mile events, or military/tactical performance standards.
From your first 50km to your first 200-miler. If you're drawn to mountains, mud, and miles that most people won't attempt — you're home.
Selection prep, operational fitness, or running your first ultra post-service. Training built around the demands of the job — and beyond it.
Police, paramedics, and emergency services athletes who need a training approach that respects shift work, unpredictable schedules, and high-stakes careers.
Wildland and structural firefighters need sport-specific endurance and strength. We build programs that translate directly to the line.
Fill out the inquiry form below. Tell me about your current training, your target race, and what's held you back. I take on a limited number of athletes to keep coaching quality high.
We get on a 30-minute video call. I want to understand your history, your terrain, your lifestyle, and your why. This shapes everything in your program.
Your plan is built around your life — not a template. Periodized, progressive, and grounded in exercise science. Delivered through TrainingPeaks before week one begins.
We adapt week by week. Life happens. Terrain changes. Your body talks. I listen. The plan evolves so you keep progressing toward the finish line — and past it.
"I've raced enough to know the difference between a hard day and a breaking point — and how to coach you through both."
Cairn coaches a small roster of athletes so every program gets the attention it deserves. If you're ready to train with purpose, fill out the form and I'll be in touch within 48 hours.
Based in Stettler, Alberta — coaching athletes across Canada, the US, and internationally. Distance is not a barrier.
