The One Skill Every Successful Ultramarathon Runner Has (And How to Build It)


Listen Later

Most ultrarunners know this one skill matters matters.

Very few actually know how to properly deploy it when life gets busy, motivation disappears, or training starts to feel heavy.

In this Coaches Roundtable episode of the Everyday Ultra Podcast, I’m joined by Everyday Ultra coaches Liz Myers and Christie Brinker to break down what consistency actually looks like — and how to build it in the real world.

We go far beyond “just show up” and get into the systems, mindset shifts, and practical strategies that allow ultrarunners to train consistently without burning out, getting injured, or sacrificing their entire life.

In this episode, we cover:

  • Why consistency is a learned skill, not a personality trait

  • The difference between blind consistency and smart consistency

  • How to stay consistent when motivation is gone

  • When skipping or adjusting a workout is actually the right move

  • How to design your training around real-life stress, work, and family

  • The most overlooked form of consistency: fueling, recovery, and strength training

  • Why “perfect” training is the enemy of long-term progress

If you’re training for an ultramarathon and feel like consistency is the missing piece — or you’ve struggled to maintain momentum in long training blocks — this episode will change how you approach your training moving forward.
