Backroads Endurance

Blake has competed at the high school and college level and has raced distances from 400m to 50k ultras. He's assistant coach at Noblesville High School and works with a handful of runners each year. He's coached and rehabbed every level from complete beginners to professional athletes. Blake maintains client care in New York throughout the year, lives in Indiana, and travels to Colorado each summer to work with Team Prep USA, a high-altitude running camp. He's training with the high school boys, and can still (just barely) make the top-7 varsity roster. ​Blake took his curiosity for endurance performance and turned it into an Exercise Science Bachelor's degree from Indiana University.
