Overview I am Dr. Tim Downey - a marathoner turned ultra runner, and seasoned endurance coach coupled with Doctor Physical Therapy who has a tenure of working with athletes to get them back to chasing goals. My career is dedicated to the science of movement and the fine tuning for high performance. From NYC to Boulder, I’ve spent over a decade helping athletes - from collegiate elites & pros to dedicated amateurs - rebuild their bodies and redefine their limits.

From the Track to the Lab My journey began on the cross-country trails of Northern Michigan. I wasn’t the naturally gifted runner; I was the one who had to work for every second. That workhorse mentality led me through a decade of marathons and ultras, but it also led me to the PT table. Having navigated everything from stress fractures to torn tissue and surgery, I realized that most runners are left guessing in the gap between "cleared for activity" and "ready to race."

The Methodology I founded Soleus Endurance to close that gap. My approach merges clinical expertise & biomechanics with the high-intensity demands of endurance sport. Whether you are chasing a sub-20 minute 5K or a 100-mile finish, I treat your body as a high-performance machine. We won’t just manage symptoms; we engineer durability through heavy compound lifts, plyometrics, and logic-driven training cycles.
