’m Mason Coppi.

I was born and raised in Southern California, went to school in South Carolina, started my trail running career in Central New York, and currently live and train in Lakewood, Colorado. Having bounced around so many different places, I don’t fit neatly into the traditional West Coast Best Coast or Beast Coast mindsets. Really, I like to think of myself as America’s Sweetheart, feeling tied to a wide range of trail types and trail communities across the U.S.

Both as a coach and an athlete, my goals are to push the boundaries of the sport, all while promoting fun and life balance! I approach training both scientifically and passionately. I love experimenting with new training methodologies and love just getting out and enjoying the mountains.

Outside of running, my interests include baking bread, cycling, dancing, karaoke, magical realism novels, illustration, and moka pot coffee.

Michelino Sunseri is an ultrarunner from Kings Beach, California. Sunseri has been a professional ultramarathoner since 2018. Michelino famously set the Grand Teton FKT in September of 2024. 

Growing up in Norwich, VT I have always been adventuring in the mountains on skis and on foot. Now living in Leadville, CO those interests have transferred to ski mountaineering and trail running. I am motivated by the beauty and solitude that the mountains and canyons of the American West can offer. Keep exploring; it's human!
