This was a great to the point video. I've run one half-marathon, and my main goal is an ultra, but your point about respecting the distance rings true for me. I've got a lot of work to do before I would feel ready for an ultra. It's nice to have something to work towards.

So good! Glad you found it useful. There’s an element of never being completely ready before an ultra (just send it!), but absolutely some requisite work to be done as well.

Agree about the gym. By virtue of the programming heading into UTA last year my gym had us doing lunges, body weight and weight squads and it just strengthened the legs for the countless stairs. I pulled up the best I ever had out of the 3 ultras I’d done.

Great video, just found your channel and subscribed. I love the eating part of ultras. To acclimate my stomach, I just eat anything and everything before my easy or long runs. I never want to get to an aid station, see something incredibly delicious there, and be like "no, nothing new on race day... 😢". So far the only hard passes for me are acidic, like tomato sauce, or fish, or anything too spicy. I've housed whole bowlfulls of mac n cheese with keilbasa and bacon, with zero issues. The chili on top caused some heartburn though. 😂

@lukewbarrett

Training with race-day nutrition has been the best thing for me. Guts seem to be able to be trained just like the rest of your body. ~120g carbs/hour for my long runs makes ~120g/hour during my races feel normal. Maybe I’ll make a video on my nutrition strategy… 🤔

So, question. If you run 10-12 hours but then also say that strength training is important (completely agree), are you adding even more training hours on top of the 10-12? So 12-15 total? Or is the strength training factored into the 10-12?

You got it. Strength training on top of running volume. Realistically it’s only an additional 1 hour a week for me though. I’m not looking to be the hulk.

Do you think this is the same for any type of distance? I have just recently started running and training for a half marathon. Obviously distance would be different, but the amount of different types of runs per month?
@lukewbarrett

Yeah I think it’s going to be similar. Change up the specificity of terrain to suit your race, but mostly easy running (70-80% of volume) then a bunch of threshold work with some real hard running sprinkled in occasionally. Good luck!
