Training for your first ultra? Don’t get stuck stressing over the perfect race, perfect training plan, or perfect gear. In this episode, I break down three things that aren’t worth overthinking and what to do instead.
1. Picking the Perfect Race
The perfect race doesn’t exist. Instead, choose one that:
✅ Excites you
✅ Fits your budget & schedule
✅ Works for your location
2. Finding the Perfect Training Plan
There’s no one-size-fits-all plan—life happens, and you’ll need to adapt. Instead of chasing perfection:
✅ Start with what has worked for you in past training
✅ Track your progress (TrainingPeaks, notebook, spreadsheet)
✅ Focus on **consistency** and **adjusting as needed**
3. Buying Expensive Gear Right Away
You don’t need to break the bank! Start with what you have and add essentials as you go:
👟 New shoes (when needed)
🎒 Hydration pack
🧥 Weather-appropriate layers
⌚️ Watch with extra features (only if necessary)
🔥 30-Day Shakedown Challenge is going strong with 50+ participants!
🚪 She Runs Ultras Membership reopens in May with big updates!
🛍️ She Runs Ultras Store is launching! Pre-orders for coffee mugs & t-shirts start next week—watch your inbox & social media!
