Subject: RE: advice for time based ultra I have never ran a time based ultra. My only ultra was a 50k trail run, but I was on that trail for 7:42 or so. It looks like we have about the same cruising speed, and your weekly mileage is a bit better than mine. Based on that.
What I would want to do. Go out at a 9 m/m pace and hold steady.
What I would really do. Blast out at a 7:15, hold that for an hour then slow down each lap until I am too exhausted to do anything but walk
In other words I don't have any advice, but good luck! |
