Rajpaul Pannu is a competitive ultrarunner supported by Hoka. What had started out as a New Year’s Resolution to lose weight and garner confidence, Rajpaul has spent fifteen years cultivating his running practice, which has allowed him to run high school, collegiate, and now, professionally ranging in distances anywhere from 10k upwards to a hundred miles.
“Absorb what is useful. Discard what is not. Add what is uniquely your own.” -Bruce Lee
Throughout that time, Rajpaul has gone through a cycle of amazing coaches & has absorbed years worth of knowledge throughout the training process. As a result, he has taken coaching into his own hands, leading him to a breakout year in 2021, a year in which he ran the fastest debut for an American in the 100k (third fastest American all-time), a 100K USATF National Championship, and a 2:16 marathon. With recent success in running/ultramarathoning, Rajpaul is confident in helping you reach your goals through personal coaching.
