Join us for a discussion with author Tim Wills, about his bookThe Ultra Mile. The Ultra Mile describes what goes into running the ultra distances, why something so difficult is also appealing, and how really long distances like 100 miles are really a team effort. The book introduces us to different aspects of running although it is not an exhaustive resource on any one topic. The book is divided into 6 parts:
1. Running
2. Preliminary training
3. The application of training
4. Training to simulate racing
5. Running ultra
6. The journey continues

Tim Wills is an Ultra Runner that has run races 100 miles and longer. He is a coach and offers consultations and online coaching to runners. He is an entrepreneur with a website offering running related products and services, and also a physical therapist assistant so has in depth knowledge about the human body and how running affects it.
