McHone Performance Training Reopens After Hurricane Helene – Rebuilding with Community and Commitment

Asheville, NC – April 16, 2025 - McHone Performance Training (MPT) is proud to announce the official reopening of its facility following a successful ribbon-cutting celebration held in partnership with the Asheville Chamber of Commerce this March.

This reopening marks a powerful moment of resilience for the MPT team and its community, following the devastating impact of Hurricane Helene.

MPT originally opened in mid-2024 and quickly became a premier training hub for mountain athletes, ultra-runners, mountain bikers, climbers, and outdoor enthusiasts. Just months after opening, Hurricane Helene caused catastrophic damage, resulting in the loss of all equipment and a full interior rebuild.

Thanks to generous community support and assistance from local grants, MPT was able to recover, rebuild, and re-equip the facility. The space is now fully operational and better equipped than ever.

"Feeling so much gratitude and love for the WNC community. Tough times don’t last, tough people do," said Steven McHone, Founder and Head Trainer. "The damage from Hurricane Helene was devastating, but the outpouring of support made our comeback possible. We’re incredibly grateful and excited to welcome everyone to our newly restored and upgraded facility."

The updated facility includes expanded resources tailored to outdoor athletes, offering specialized training for endurance sports, strength and conditioning programs, and in-house physical therapy and sports massage services.

MPT welcomes inquiries from outdoor athletes and enthusiasts who are interested in learning more. Whether you're preparing for a competitive season or simply aiming to move better in daily life and on the trail, the coaching team is available to discuss training goals and program options.

To support new members during this reopening phase, MPT offers $100 off enrollment for a limited time.
