Ultra Running VLOG - Bighorn 100 Miles Ultra Marathon

Curious about how to train and run an ultra marathon? Welcome to my ultra running training VLOG - Episode 6. This series shows what it takes to run ultra marathon, providing you honest and uncensored details as I train and race for 100 miles ultra marathon every month for the third year. This is a 'behind the scene' view showing the imperfection but the reality of ultra running. This episode covers 3 weeks, including a small training block along with my first mountain ultra marathon of the season: Bighorn 100 miles.

I finally had a real training block. This might be the last for a while so I made the most of it. By racing so frequently, I'm often in cycles of taper - race -- recover - taper - race. But this time, I had 2 weeks of training.

My focus was on having good mileage (aiming 60-70) with 1-2 strength sessions a week, and speed work (or hills). It wasn't perfect, but I was pretty close.

Then we moved to Wyoming for Bighorn 100 miles! What a race! I provide a high level recap here, and I'm working on a full ultra running documentary - hopefully releasing this weekend.

Next race is Quebec Mega Trail 100 miles - part of the world trail major! July 4, so stay tuned!

As always - Thanks for watching and remember -

Work Hard!
Believe in yourself!
Push your limits!
