coach Laura HAll
Hi, I’m Laura
I’m (the other) Laura, and I wear a lot of hats (literally and figuratively). I’m a nurse, endurance coach, outdoor enthusiast, and someone who believes that you can chase big goals without burning out doing it.
My career hasn’t followed a straight line — it’s been lived in the cracks between hospital shifts, mountain ridgelines, ski descents, trail miles, and search-and-rescue missions. I’ve learned a few things along the way:
Long shifts and unpredictable schedules don’t have to mean sacrificing your health
Adventure and resilience belong together
Strength isn’t built by ignoring stress — it’s built by understanding it
I help women — especially nurses and high-demand professionals — feel confident, capable, and physically ready for the adventures they dream about, whether that’s a trail race, a multi-day mountain objective, or just showing up to life with energy left in the tank.
I believe we can all do hard things, at our own pace. You don’t have to be the fastest or most experienced to get out there and have fun. You can try new things at any age and any stage. You might just need a little guidance, and that’s where I come in — with a strategy that fits your real life:
Training that honors your nervous system
Fueling that supports your energy demands
Recovery that actually helps you feel better
Progressive that’s sustainable, not destructive
When I’m not nursing or coaching, you’ll find me chasing the perfect ski line, ridge run, or quaint mountain town coffee shop.

how to work with me
Training for big goals shouldn’t feel like a binary choice between broken body or burnout. My coaching is built for women living real, busy lives — especially nurses and other high-stress professionals — who want to pursue endurance goals without crashing afterward.
Here’s how I can support you:
1:1 Adventure Coaching (Personalized Training)
This is your fully individualized coaching experience. We start with your life — shifts, sleep, stress, personal goals — and build a training plan that fits your rhythms, not the other way around.
Together we’ll:
• Map your current physical and stress capacity
• Design a progressive, adaptive plan that fits your schedule
• Refine fueling and recovery strategies that work around shifts
• Keep you accountable without guilt or rigidity
This is ideal if you want to:
✔️ Finish a trail run, ultra, or mountain race
✔️ Summit mountains with more confidence and energy
✔️ Confidently say “yes!” to any adventure
✔️ Pursue big goals while preserving your health
Small-Group & Cohort Programs
Group coaching isn’t just accountability — it’s community, structure, and shared momentum.
Programs include:
• Shift-Strong Collective — for nurses & shift workers who want to dig deep into what’s causing their burnout, and how they can proactively solve with in order to train sustainably
• Performance Nutrition and Endurance cohorts — group training for hard-charging women with big endurance goals
These group experiences blend education, peer support, and guided training so you never feel like you’re doing it alone.
Trailhead Consult
Not sure where to begin? Let’s talk strategy.
A Trailhead Consult is a focused coaching session where we:
• Outline your big goals
• Identify your biggest constraints
• Create a practical first phase of a plan
• Build clarity around next steps
Think of it as your roadmap session — without long-term commitment.
What You Can Expect:
When you work with me, you’ll:
Train smarter, not harder
Build sustainable endurance and resilience
Learn to fuel and recover around your life
Show up stronger — on shift and off
Enjoy the journey to your goals
Why This Works:
Most training programs assume:
Predictable sleep
Low stress
Stable schedules
That’s not real life — especially not for nurses, caregivers, and professionals on demanding schedules. My coaching is designed to:
Respect your nervous system
Adapt to real-world stressors
Give you a plan you can follow consistently
Help you build resilience that lasts beyond a race day or summit
If you want to chase adventure and still feel good doing it — you’re in the right place.
