Description
To enter a Long or Ultra distance event or challenge the likes of 100 km is a decision and a half. The confidence that needs to be built up not only of the distance but of the whole experience cannot be underestimated. Get it right and to complete such a distance is very, very self-satisfying. Preparation is key.
This guidebook explores the preparation, technical aspects and what you can expect before, during and after this arduous task. Long distance running is a test of not only endurance but also of handling the mind games, your mental strength and is the true challenge to the endurance runner.
Long distance running is a test of not only endurance but also of handling the mind games, your mental strength and is the true challenge to the endurance runner. The purpose of this training guide is to prepare the regular 10k, half marathon or marathon off road runner to move the mileage up to Long Distance or the Long Distance runner who wants to go the extra mile [ or two ] to enter the world of Ultra. The Trail and Fell runners who perform the Long Distance and Ultra runs are few compared to the shorter distance, which means that your preparation is arduous and requires you to spend much time training alone. We will explore the different types of runs and races which make up Long and Ultra Distance, preparation, the technical aspects of the events and what to expect at and during the event.
