Ep. 289 - No Hills? No Excuse: How to Train for Elevation Anywhere


Listen Later

Flat terrain? No problem. Learn how to train for race-day climbs with the tools you already have.

Think you can’t train for an ultra with elevation because you live in the city or someplace flat? Think again. 🏙️⛰️

In this episode, I’m breaking down how to prepare for the ups and downs of race day—even if your “hills” look more like parking garage ramps or stairwells.

You’ll learn:
👉 Why you must understand your race profile before you train
👉 How to make the most of the hills (or tiny bumps) you do have
👉 Creative ways to build climbing power when you’ve got zero elevation nearby

Elevation doesn’t have to be the thing that stops you from running your first (or farthest) ultra. With a little strategy and creativity, you can get the work done no matter where you live.
