Kishlay Rai has completed 17 Full Distance IRONMANs and qualified for the World Championship twice. He coaches busy professionals — IAS officers, doctors, corporate leaders — to cross the finish line on their own terms. One-to-one. Personalised. Proven.
⚡ Only 6 coaching spots available for June–September 2026
Kishlay Rai completed his first IRONMAN in 2018 — with a broken wrist. Since then, he has finished 17 full-distance IRONMANs, qualified for the World Championship twice (Kona 2024, Nice 2023), and earned AWA Gold Athlete status.
But what makes his coaching different is not the race results.
It is the fact that he has coached IAS officers, Naval commanders, surgeons, and corporate executives — people with zero margin for wasted training time and zero tolerance for generic plans.
Every athlete Kishlay works with gets a plan built around their actual life: their work schedule, their travel calendar, their sleep constraints, and their race goal. Nothing is copy-pasted from a template.
If you are a working professional who wants to cross an IRONMAN finish line — without burning out or falling apart — this is where you start.
“I don’t train athletes who have nothing else to do. I train people who have everything going on — and still want to finish an IRONMAN.”— Kishlay Rai
