Why Miles and Mountains Coaching?
If you want to explore your limits, we know that a training plan isn't enough. Adaptive and personalized training with a long-term focus is how runners actually improve.
My name is Josh Fields, and I built Miles & Mountains Coaching for runners like us. It’s been my greatest privilege to help hundreds of runners love the process, achieve big goals, and find balance in life with a real sense of belonging in the community.
This is empathetic, human-centered personal coaching for all levels, built around your history, schedule, stress, goals and the inevitable bumps in life.
True fitness isn’t created in a 20-week plan — it’s built through consistent, purposeful training that adapts to you and supports your long-term progression.
From total beginners to ultramarathon champions — Boston Qualifiers to state record-holders to OCR age-group world champions — Miles & Mountains athletes are running 1–200 miles on trails, roads, mountains, and obstacles all over the world.
Join us — and find out what you’re truly capable of.
