Episode description
Spoiler alert: it's probably less than you think.
I'm big on helping runners break into ultramarathons, and one of the biggest barriers is how much time per week you need to train for one. Many assume that you need 8+ hours per week to run a 50k, and that's just not true.
I break down how long you need to train for a 50k, a good starting point before training, and take you through a typical training block progression leading up to race day.
Enjoy!
