Скачать или смотреть Week 1: Training for My First Ultra Marathon

I finally did it – I signed up for my first 50 mile ultra marathon! The Rocky 50 in Huntsville, TX. No bucket-list talk, just hitting “register” and figuring it out from here.

In this first episode, I break down:
1. Why I decided to run a 50 miler in my late 40s
2. My current fitness level (Hyrox, CrossFit-style training, and decent but not crazy mileage)
3. My high-level plan: long runs, back-to-back days, strength, and staying uninjured
4. Clips from my first week of training – early miles, pacing mistakes, and small wins

If you’re into ultra marathons, trail and distance running, Hyrox, CrossFit, endurance, or fitness over 40, this series is for you. I’m not a pro – just a midlife athlete documenting what it really looks like to train for 50 miles around work and family.
