Training Plan
- Bodyweight workouts M/W/F
- Running plan: Hal Higdon - Ultramarathon 50K
I’ve used Hal Higdon’s plans for all of my previous races and they’ve always worked well for me.
With an ultra I have two main concerns: fueling, and mental strength. The last 8 or so miles of my last marathon were absolutely miserable; the gels I used sat heavily on my stomach and I struggled to eat anything, which made me tired and sad. As part of my training I want to experiment more with different methods of fueling to make sure I don’t experience that again.
