Doing The Work

Doing the work

Tom Clifford, the visionary founder of Without Limits, embodies the spirit of endurance sports through his roles as an athlete, coach, and faith-driven individual. His journey began at age 11, running short distances and braving Michigan’s cold winters. As a high school athlete, Tom realized that success came not only from hard work but also from self-belief and enjoying the process. After a notable collegiate running career at Eastern Michigan, Tom took a break and relocated to Wilmington, NC, where he reignited his passion. With a fresh perspective, advanced coaching skills, and a newfound positivity, Tom achieved several half marathon victories, marathon victories, top 60 in the Boston Marathon, Top 20 American and NYC Marathon and 70.3 Ironman Champion.  Today he is one of the top Masters Runners in the Southeast.  His commitment has led to the creation of several successful races and the coaching of hundreds of athletes, helping them reach their endurance goals and embrace their full potential.
