FITNESS IS A LIFESTYLE
A Masters in Physiology, a decade as a personal trainer, and a lifetime of endurance sports.
My name is James Beaumont, and I am a UESCA-qualified Scottish trail running coach, based in the beautiful Highlands of Scotland.
In addition to my UESCA trail running qualification, I have extensive experience in nutrition and strength & conditioning. When combined, this knowledge helps me provide a comprehensive approach to training, with all the tools you need to not only become a better runner, but a better runner with balance, health and longevity as a focus.
My love for the mountains led to ‘compleating’ a round of the 282 Munro’s, which when combined with my keen interest in applied performance, spurred me to go further and faster, quickly developing into a love for trail running.
Trail running is my primary sport, complemented by road/mountain biking, as well as ski mountaineering. Trail running has led to truly incredible experiences in beautiful places that I would not have had otherwise.
Through coaching, I hope to help others enjoy similar experiences and to play a small part in the continual growth of this superb sport.
