About Luke Pryor

Based on the Sunshine Coast and working almost entirely online, he supports runners, cyclists and triathletes from anywhere. He brings a background in strength & conditioning/sports science, many years working with professional athletes, and more than thirty ultramarathon finishes — all of which shape his practical, process-driven approach.
