Hi, I’m Kelly Lutz aka Coaching Klutz!
I’m a certified running/ultra running coach and certified strength and conditioning specialist with a passion for helping women, trans, and non-binary folks train sustainably so they can enjoy training while dreaming big and pushing their limits (whether on the road, on the trail or in the gym).
In 2009, I decided to take the leap and sign up for my first half marathon. I had played sports all through my childhood and had run a couple fun 5Ks, but a half marathon seemed so BADASS. I trained with a generic plan and got injured within my first month (don’t worry – I started training far enough in advance to run and complete my race!). I fell in love and ran another half marathon 6 months later.
After those races, I walked on the D1 cross country team at my college and vastly improved my running with the help of my coach and our personal trainer. This is when I first saw the value in working with a coach for running. Fast forward to now, I’ve run multiple 5Ks, 10Ks, half marathons, and 50Ks and have become a United Endurance Sports Coaching Academy Certified Running and Ultrarunning Coach and NSCA Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist.
My favorite distance to coach is the 50k, especially an athlete's first 50k, however what matters most to me in the athletes that I coach is how we get along. Coaching doesn't work without open communication and trust between athlete and coach.
Think we might mesh well and want to learn more about my programs? Whether you’re looking for running coaching or strength coaching, I can help.

Training Block was created with a mission to support and empower runners, in order to elevate our sport. We do so by giving runners access to a network of local sport performance providers, who provide runners with the care they need from coaching, physical therapy, massage, strength training, and more. We also give providers an easy way to connect with each other and share articles, videos, and other resources that benefit runners and providers alike. For every service booked through Training Block, we donate 10% of our revenues to Training Block’s Elite Athlete Fund, which sponsors elite runners who do not have professional contracts and need financial support for racing at their highest level.
