Questions

How do I prepare for an ultramarathon?

Ultra training focuses on time on feet rather than just distance. Build your weekly long runs gradually, practice nutrition and hydration strategies, and train on similar terrain to the race. Mental preparation is equally important. ultras are as much a mental challenge as a physical one.

How is ultra training different from marathon training?

Ultra training emphasizes time on feet over speed. Weekly long runs might extend to 4-6 hours. You'll need to practice nutrition extensively. you can't fake fueling in an ultra. Back-to-back long runs help simulate tired legs, and training on race-specific terrain is essential.
