The Valley of Fire ‘RV’ curriculum is a high-intensity, 6-day mission engineered to weaponize heat and rugged terrain. Our sessions are strategically timed to the “Desert Window”: we capitalize on the cool, high-contrast light of sunrise for our primary efforts, and utilize the midday heat for purposeful thermal adaptation. As a guest, you are following a tactical blueprint that respects the demands of the Mojave, ensuring you master the red rock climbs and open-water stretches with the precision required to thrive.

With over two decades spent at the intersection of endurance sports, high-performance nutrition, and athletic entrepreneurship, Andy’s approach to training is rooted in real-world results. His resume isn’t just a list of 119 race starts or multiple Ironman World Championship finishes—it is a testament to a life lived in motion. From conquering the solo 365-mile Vegas In 24 challenge to founding Ho’Omau Endurance, Andy has spent twenty years deconstructing what it takes to perform when the environment turns hostile.
For Andy, the Valley of Fire isn’t just a scenic backdrop; it’s a familiar proving ground. He has personally engineered the route architecture and heat-acclimation protocols for this 6-day mission to ensure every athlete finds their physiological edge. Whether you’re discussing fat-oxidation at 95°F or tactical pacing through the red rock canyons, Andy brings a level of insight that hits the mark 9 ¾ out of 10 times.
To foster a culture of transparency and growth, Andy leads a daily 20-minute “Campfire Q&A” where the floor is open for any topic—from granular data analysis to the mental game of endurance. You’ll find Andy right beside the squad for the majority of the swims, rides, and desert runs, providing real-time feedback and leading by example in the Mojave heat.
