Allison from the Run Your First 50k Facebook group posted this a couple weeks ago: " Anyone else feeling lost without a training plan? As some of you might remember, I ran my first 50K at the end of April. And then I did a trail Ragnar and another race or two that didn’t necessarily require specific training. But what I’ve found is that I kind of feel lost without a training plan. I trained solo and did the requisite Zone 2 for my 50K, and now I am too slow for most social running. And life has ...

Do you know the difference between heart rate training and rate of perceived exertion? Back when I first started doing ultras, I had no clue about either one… I mean, I had heard of heart rate zones but I was thoroughly confused about how to integrate them into my training, so I didn’t! Not to mention that I thought that type of training was for elite runners and I’m clearly not one of them! Fast forward to the present and I’ve used both of these methods to train for everything from 50k’s to 200...

Back when I was training for road marathons, I used to come home at the end of my long weekend runs, collapse on my couch, and sleep for hours. Physically exhausted, my body would ache all over for days, and I was convinced that there was no way I would make it the full 26.2 on race day. During a recent coaching call with the She Runs Ultras membership group , this very same topic came up so I wanted to share some of the things that helped me overcome being exhausted at the end of a long run.
