Coach Tyler Shockey has been competitively running for the better part of the last three years and has accumulated quite the list of accomplishments along the way. Tyler ran his very first marathon in March 2024 with a sub-4 hour finish, only to run two more that year and take 30 minutes off that initial time in his PR performance (3:25). In shorter distances, he has shown the range of his abilities with multiple sub-20' 5K performances and several 1st place finishes.

But the road isn't the only terrain where Tyler's hard work shines. 2025 was the year he set out on his path of ultra-marathon running, competing in his very first 50K, 100K (1st place finish), and 100-miler all within 6 months! Tyler has also placed 1st in back-to-back performances (2025 & 2026) at The Old School 20-mile trail race at Lincoln Parish Park, setting a new course record with his 2026 finish.
