David Roche’s Dedication to His Wahoo KICKR RUN

· By Endurance Wire

David Roche talks about why he thinks treadmill use is revolutionizing trail running and ultrarunning training. When David Roche — who is both a successful coach and runner — first started training consistently on a treadmill a few years ago, he had little idea that his life as an athlete or approach to coaching were about to change dramatically. Then in 2024, he broke Matt Carpenter’s 19-year-old Leadville 100 Mile course record by more than 16 minutes . Convinced about the benefits of treadmill training for ultras and tired of using treadmills he didn’t love, he purchased a Wahoo KICKR RUN on the recommendation of other runners.
