The coach

About this coach

Mark is the founder and head coach of No Code Coaching, bringing together years of endurance racing experience, a background in education, and a genuine passion for helping everyday athletes discover what they’re capable of.

As an athlete, Mark has competed across everything from road running and trail races to 100-mile ultramarathons and multi-day endurance events, including winning Ultraman Australia in 2026. That experience has given him a deep understanding of the physical, mental and practical demands of preparing for endurance events – while still balancing training with work, family and everyday life.

Through No Code Coaching, Mark works with runners of all abilities, from those building towards their first 10km or half marathon through to experienced trail runners and ultramarathon athletes chasing ambitious goals.

Athletes can expect personalised, practical coaching built around the individual rather than a generic programme. Training is delivered through TrainingPeaks and adjusted around how the athlete is responding, with regular communication, accountability and support along the way.

The No Code philosophy is simple: work hard, be consistent, stay humble – and enjoy finding out just how much you’re capable of.
