After all who in their right mind WANTS to run 100km? Nobody. Thinking about it in hindsight it makes sense. But nothing prepared me for the mental challenge of running 100km. We all know that endurance races are tough and that we need to keep mentally strong to get through them. Hopefully this list will help you through both. In every new distance there are things we learn in training about ourselves and things we learn on race day that might have been helpful to know in advance. Mostly I learned that I CAN DO IT – and so can you. This kind of endurance race takes determination to a whole new level and I learned a lot about myself on the way. I have been racing endurance events from Ironman triathlons to marathons for many years, but nothing quite prepared me for my first 100km ultra run. And you can snag a first 50K training plan here! Today Georgia is hopping in with some great lessons.
Which meant I’ve been picking brains and enjoying the lessons of experienced runners. Many of you know that my time on the trails has me pondering the eventual ultra.
