Candy Mama here! yes this used to be a couples account with my husband named "THE DOWER DUO". We have since rebranded it to feature my individual adventures.
a little about me~ wife first, adventurer second! I have thru hiked the Appalachian Trail and Mountains-To-Sea Trail. I am the fastest person to ever hike the Mountains-To-Sea Trail spanning the length of North Carolina. 1175 miles in 29 days! I've also set FKTs on the Benton MacKaye Trail and Colorado Trail. I enjoy creating wanderlust content and trail running!
I hope you enjoy!

From your AT thru-hiker intro videos to your gear giveaways to your marathons (Yay Mt. Trashmore in Virginia Beach) to your ultra-marathons and to everything else that you give to the "community," you ROCK! (From the guy who commented that Andrew and Todd should share the pee cloth). Thanks for the inspiration and for all that you do.

8 laps X 12.5 mile per lap Lap pace: 8:54, 8:56, 8:54, 8:41, 8:45, 9:03, 8:56, 8:54 Consistency wins the race As long as you continue to have fun, you've got at least 5 years to hone your mental game, nutrition, and training to hit your peak. It's fun to see how quickly you're advancing, and the potential that rests within you. Great job.

What would be your advise for people getting into racing at an "older" age? I did my first half last year and loved it. I want to do more of these races, but I feel a bit discouraged as I am getting into this now in my mid-thirties. Any encouragements, suggestions for reading to learn about nutrition, and or so suggestions are appreciated.
@taratreks
@taratreks 6 ай бұрын
Yeah! I’d work up from a marathon to 50k. From there a 50 miler, to 100k and then 100 miler. You can go on The Feed and get several nutrition options to try out on your gut as you do your training runs. That’s a good place to begin!

Lucky for you, 30s-40s is when ultra runners often hit their peak, instead of 20s like shorter road races! I was convinced to try ultras by a 70 something year old. He'd only started running in his 60s, and was still doing ultras! I did my first trail marathon/50k at 41, and wish I'd made the switch years ago- but even though I'm in my mid 40s, I'm constantly setting and beating new distances, PRs, etc. Have fun!!

@@Kelly_Ben Thanks! That's encouraging. I had this conversation with my wife recently. I wish I'd found things like backpacking and races earlier. I wasted my 20s being your typical dumb college student with no drive. Part of it honestly was it seemed unattainable. I always thought marathoners were in this upper echelon of athlete that just wasn't me. I'm doing it now, but at times, I wonder, "Man, have I missed the train here? Am I too old?"

Ok thank you! I ordered the waist belt after watching this video because I’ve only used a hydration vest but I have a 12hr loop course coming up in June and it will be beneficial to figure out how to be efficient with this waist belt. I enjoy following your journey and love the videos 🫡🏃‍♂️
