Meet the coaches of RMC

Coach/Owner: Eve Rebennack

Eve is an educator turned stay-at-home-mom turned ultra-runner. Trail running has been a passion for her since she was a teenage cross-country runner, but she re-dedicated time to it after being on bedrest during her first pregnancy.  After years of racing shorter distances on trails, Eve ran her first ultramarathon in 2017 and fell in love with the challenge of testing her own limits. Rising Mountains Coaching embodies this spirit of adaptation and the idea that anyone can do hard things with focus, hard work, and encouragement. When Eve isn't racing, crewing, or pacing, she loves to travel and adventure.

"I've noticed how much better I am focusing when I have a plan and schedule to follow. Naturally I resist being told what to do, but it seems to be no issue for me taking on a coach. I've just started my second training block with Coach Eve of Rising Mountains Coaching. She's been the perfect coach for me. Whenever I have questions or concerns, she's been there for me. The plan she laid out for me stacked my mileage in a way that felt easy for me. Her direction and support was crucial to my success in my last 50." - Amanda, South Dakota
