Coach Ron Gunn's Adventure Tours for the chronologically enhanced  but young at heart.  Many of our adventurers are 40+, some are retired from their life work but not from their life, and we have  college students and 20 somethings who enjoy our trips.  Many marathon runners and other athletes enjoy the coach's trips but often the most rewarding experiences happen to those with a limited athletic background. With good coaching most succeed in accomplishing goals they might have thought impossible.  Coach Gunn's gift is to lead you to your best physical potential and then reward this accomplishment by escorting you through places the casual tourist will never see in person.  Millions will see the Haleakala Crater in Hawaii but Coach Gunn will hike you through it.  Millions of visitors to the South Rim of the Grand Canyon lose their breath just looking down at the beauty and grandeur  but Coach Gunn will hike you through it to see it like only a fraction of one percent will ever see!

Many of our marathoners say that a day-hike through Grand Canyon is a greater challenge than running 26 miles, yet it is more rewarding.  It is the endurance not the speed that allows for a successful hike through Grand Canyon and allows the time to take in this most extraordinary experience.  Over 100 have successfully made this hike and reaped the rewards at completion - perhaps you can too!

Most trips are planned for everyone, regardless of ability, to have a wonderful time. The ultimate challenge for the extreme day-hiker is the trek through Grand Canyon which can be a life-changing experience. It is a challenge so unique and rewarding that it touches body, mind, and spirit; It is magical. 

Coach Ron Gunn describes the experience of completing the Rim to Rim extreme day-hike this way, "it is an intensely personal experience."
