Kylie Aldaz
OWNER, DESERT TO PEAK COACHING
RRCA LEVEL 1 • UESCA ULTRARUNNING COACH
Colorado-raised, now calling Phoenix, Arizona home. Kylie's running journey began in 2010 as a way to cope with losing her mother — she ran her first 5K in 2012 and her first ultramarathon in 2017, and hasn't looked back since. A proud mom, partner to a fellow ultrarunner, and full-time professional at the University of Arizona, she coaches from the belief that success looks different for every runner, and that the goal is to help you trust yourself and find out what you're capable of.
Luke Watkins
UESCA ULTRARUNNING COACH • ACSM-EP
Luke's endurance journey started in high school and carried him through collegiate competition in South Dakota before the trails pulled him in for good. He holds a B.S. in Wellness Management and an M.S. in Human Movement, pairing exercise science with two decades of racing everything from 50Ks to the Cocodona 250 — and the firsthand understanding of balancing training with real life.
PHILOSOPHY
"This is your journey — and we're here to help you dream big, reach your full potential, and be inspired to run for a lifetime."
