3 months is really short for endurance training. Most coaches and pros recommend a MINIMUM of a year of base building (slower, long easy runs just to build aerobic capacity) before going on to race specific training like for a certain distance or elevation gain or course. There's a reason most accomplished long distance athletes are in their 30s and 40s. Genetics will determine how fast you progress but ultimately it's just about putting the years in and training smartly so you don't screw your joints over before you can reach your potential

RE: carb loading. It’s also significantly more beneficial to taper training prior to a race vs trying to eat more carbs. That will allow muscles/liver to fill up with the maximum amount of fuel they can hold. Plus, it’s allows you to enter into a race/long run more rested. Source: I’m a registered Dietitian/bike rider
@derhak7273 жыл бұрын
Ultrarunning is the best sport! Seeing what the human body is capable is amazing and the community is the most supportive, best group of people you could find. In races, participants actually stop to help those that are injured or need water/food. The last one to finish often gets more cheers than first place. And the food! All the food! lol
As a sport science student- we recommend carb loading for about a week before with tapered training so you are accumulating glycogen stores and not depleting it quickly. That water retention is important too as they need to be euhydrated or even slightly hyper hydrated. It isn’t comfortable, but it has been proven to maximise performance. That’s why we carb load gradually and taper it, not eat a huge amount before hand, just a few lollies or some sports drink up until 30 mins for you start. I guess it is subjective for all runners though, they have to do what they feel is right for them. 😀
@FOXZERO2372 жыл бұрын
That’s weird. My degree is in Exercise Science. Sports Nutrition actually specifically advised against carb loading prior to any event or competition, including endurance events such as Ironman, Marathons and further. More water retention and bloat sounds fine until your multiple pounds heavier than what you’ve been training at and now you have to expend more energy to propel yourself forward. Athletes should indeed consume carbohydrates, yes. But, not within the “carb loading” range. Generally, you have enough glycogen stored as is to perform for quite some time. Stack that with whatever you’ve recently eaten and whatever liquid, gel or solid food you consume during the movement and you’re quite fine. Carb loading in general has been shown to be detrimental to performance.

(swap left and right if your country drives on the left) if there it a narrow road with little to no pedestrian space, walk on the left. if the sidewalk is wide enough, you may walk on any side of the road but stay on the right of the sidewalk. to overtake a slow walker is similar to driving. look ahead to make sure there are no people heading the other way, overtake on the left, increase your speed a lot when overtaking and after you are finished, maintain your speed you don't really need to announce your presence, if its a crowd, it will not be too suitable to overtake, if its only another runner, there is enough space

I've done a few ultras and about 8 marathons, and the key is to eat a lot the day before and the day before that. Like 5000 calories a day or more (usually 6000 at least the day before). On the day of the ultra it's all about gatorade, bananas, watermelons, cereal bars, date bars, orange juice and maybe a light sandwich. Plus things with salt. When I did an ultra in Singapore, we were snacking on roasted potatoes covered in salt because we were sweating so much in the intense heat and humidity) This way you don't get the upset tummy and you just eat like 2-5 bites worth every half hour or so plus sip on fuel.

@@AdamSmith75th Yeah, everyone can get into ultra-marathons and what not, but his first run in years was like 30 miles or something. I just thought it’s important to understand this guy has a life experience of not experience the exact same burn of lactic acid as everyone else, and when it comes to raising your VO2 max and training your ability to maintain pace for long periods of time, a lot of it is based around heart rates that balance the point at which the lactic acid in your body is just under the point of making your muscles give up. In fact, that’s exactly how runners train, they’ll make sure they’re at the point of equilibrium between oxygen intake and lactic acid buildup so as to improve their endurance optimally.
