  • I am a distance runner. I absolutely love it!
  • Thanks for sharing the resource! I will check it out. I love trail running! I sort of winged it when I ran my first 50 (though I did have several marathons prior to the race). I figured maybe I should do some research & specific planning this time as I am hoping to increase the ultra distance to 100k. Good luck as you…
  • Uuughhh...the dreaded injuries along the way. Don't you hate it! I hope your recovery goes well & that your ready to go for the 60.
  • Hi, Danielle! Glad you found it interesting as well. Yes, I would definitely agree that running is mostly about our mental state and how we approach the run before, during and afterwards. Happy running!
  • How did your 50 go? What did your training plan look like? Glad to find another ultra runner on here.
  • Yes, my metabolism has slowed down tremendously. I am 46. I have run marathons and ultra marathons this past year and still no change. Frustrating. I added strength training this past year which has been somewhat helpful and I am looking to add core exercises. And of course, I have cut calories. Good luck to you!!
  • I have since put back on my running shoes. How about you?
  • Yes, you got it. I appreciate the encouragement! I have since gotten out there and have run for 30 minutes. It's a start. :)
  • Fortunately, I suffered no major injuries. Prior to the ultra in February, I had run two simultaneous marathons (one in late Dec. & one in early Jan.). I think I was just tired upon the completion of the one in February. Friends were talking about training for a 100 miler and I couldn't imagine keeping the rigorous…
  • Feel free to add me. I recently jumped back onto the app. Looking to do a full marathon in Dec./Jan. and another ultra in February if I can convince another person to train with me. Happy running!
  • Would like to be add too! Thanks!
