I’m Michael Wehrle, Founder and Head Coach at 1T1 Endurance.

First Things First… I am:
– A faithful follower of Jesus (ask me anything!)
– Happily married to my best friend (since 2003)
– Dedicated Dad of four! (three of which are teenagers š¬)
These are my First Things…

As a runner…
– I love running on trails, in the woods and in the mountains!
– I don’t “race” very much. Keeping my First Things First on the weekends…
– I prefer ultra long adventure runs.
– I have a perfectly healthy relationship with my treadmill!
– Amazing runners don’t necessarily make amazing coaches. Nevertheless, you’d do better to Strava-stalk stalk me than look at my UltraSignup Rank and wonder “does he even run???”

As a Coach…
– Helped athletes finish their first 100 and 50k
– Helped athletes achieve FKTs
– Iāve studied many training styles and methods (my bookshelf impresses me) from the 5k to ultra endurance.
– Learned strength training under private coaching
– Professional management leader (in the real world) obsessed with lifting others up! (I would love for you to consider the kudos given to me professionally as a leader. My leadership qualities, empathy, communication skills, and strategic mindset are highly transferable to endurance coaching. These strengths enable me to inspire, support, and guide my clients toward achieving their goals, just as Iāve done for my professional teams.)

Testimonial From Athletes and Employees…
“Michael took my personal goal and made it achievable without sacrificing valuable time with family. The one on one conversations were great to help understand what the work was and what I needed to expect without surprises. Helped take the thinking out of what I needed to do on race day. The consistent eat this Huma gel was what I needed. Ability to train under his guidance without the huge time commitment was great. Workouts were tailored to fit my goals for what my race consisted of. Personality, couldnāt ask for better.” – Justin
“It has been a dream of mine, since I read āBorn to Runā around 6 years ago, to run an ultramarathon. The idea seemed so simple in mind that I thought it would be no problem to accomplish that goal. Unfortunately dreams and reality are often two very different things. Enter Michael Wehrle! He and I connected in September of 2024 when I asked in a local running group for a coach to run a 50k. Honestly I had no idea what I was looking for but fortunately Michael has the personal and professional running/coaching history to make up for my inexperience. Since our first conversation Michael has guided me like a mentor through each nuance of his training program so I will be ready for my race. Iāve been through only a fourth of my prep with Michael and I feel like Iām getting an unbelievable value for his time and effort. I hope to be a lifelong student of his and canāt wait for many more training runs and races under his guidance.” – Nick
