Road to 50. Ep 1 - training for my first ultra marathon

As part of my new series, I’m taking you through my training as I prepare to embark on my biggest challenge yet:
A 50km Ultra marathon trail run through the Blue Mountains in NSW.
We talk with Coach Layne Fletcher at Milestone Strength as we prepare the program I will be following in the upcoming months, as well as the inspiration for the run: my recent trip to Hawaii with Apple to road test the Apple Watch Ultra.

Living vicariously through you. I was run over and dragged by a van ten years ago and have now developed terminal CRPS. I’ve relearned to walk but sadly my life is attached to a walker right now…but watching others push themselves physically and mentally really helps me with my small (to everyone else but insurmountable to me ) challenges. Rooting for you from 🇨🇦♥️

[@isnathan]

I’m really sorry to hear that. But I’ll push myself harder for you ❤️
