ABOUT COACH RON GUNN AND COACH HAL HIGDON
ABOUT COACH RON GUNN
Coach Gunn was an outstanding collegiate Cross-Country coach who trained 136 All Americans and eight NJCAA national championship teams.
He has trained several hundred adults to successfully run their first marathon such as Honolulu as part of a three island tour. And he's prepared hundreds more to successfully day-hike a marathon distance at unique locations worldwide such as Grand Canyon, Zion National Park, Spain, Italy, New Zealand and Scotland, the ancestral home of the Gunn clan.
His passion is coaching adults to greater fitness levels and reward them with unique hiking adventures. This team building makes his hiking tours uniquely great experiences.
His mottos:
"Showing really cool people the world!"
"We don't sleep on the ground."
"There's a pub at the end of every wilderness hike."
A LITTLE HISTORY
Coaches, Hal Higdon and Ron Gunn developed a successful progressive overload marathon training program. Hal went international and Ron stayed local forming a running club for those who took his running classes at SMC. For decades the group traveled to run races or to see the world. Club members bonded such that after more than 45 years the MNRC (Monday Night Running Club) still meets to walk in fellowship, to stay fit and will welcome new members. [Questions about MNRC contact Thom@CairnStoneTours. com, club president.]
In 2007 Cairn Stone Adventure Tours, llc was formed after Coach Gunn retired from SMC. His hiking adventures are unforgettable and the 8 months of preparatory training has a way of bonding participants in brotherhood and sisterhood.
Author and Coach, Hal Higdon is world famous for his online marathon training programs.
