🤔 What's the biggest challenge you face in your ultra running journey? 🏃‍♂️

@steveb9658 Ай бұрын

Absolutely the mental one. Got my first ultra (55k) this Summer and struggling with the idea of keeping going for 7 plus hours 😢

@natashaluna Ай бұрын

Right now, a knee injury that I didn't take seriously enough. Can't run for the moment, doing some rehab, and I want to focus on trail (I've been mixing trail with road, and messing my training, and my knee, because... well, long story, lesson learned). My goal is to run ultras so I have to get serious about rest and injury prevention exercices, and resume training, hopefully soon. Kudos for including trail running on your channel. (What a privilege, running with Kilian Jornet!)

I’m not built like a runner, but I still have fun training and pretending to be like Kilian (More like Buttery Kilian 🧈 😂). Anyways.. biggest challenge for me is the heat… not able to cool off as well as most real runners.

Never think of that but an Xterra would be a good idea to mix thing up a little.

Interesting with the nutrition subject. Always wondered how the ultra runners think about nutrition. Now I realize that many of my friends ultra runners are not so informed about how to train the gut and how to timing the nutrition. For my triathlon friends it’s a part of the training. In many of our workouts we got nutrition. It’s written how much nutrition I should take in my training plan for the specific workout. I wonder if my friend in ultra running have that information in her training program. I noticed how much Mark enjoy listening to Kilian 🤩, I do also even I’m not an ultra runner.

@GTE_Channel Ай бұрын

It's dependent in the distance. And there are two ends of the spectrum in terms of carbs or low carb, and nuances in what to do when..... In the end everybody needs to experiment and work out what works best for them personally

Well now you know what video to send them 😉

Kilian uses Maurten a lot. But used to win UTMB with very little food or water

@mitchellmclaughlin6360 Ай бұрын

Honestly it’s true. In terms of nutrition we’re behind cycling and triathlon. We learn a lot from those sports actually.

I'm in luck I have a flyover nearby, but that's a 30sec downhill on asphalt. I face the same problem. I can be creative for more 'technical' solutions but those are 5-10sec Max, no real downhill training. Guess that's the downside of living in 'the polder'

92 on vo2 max? Pretty much could give up oxygen at that point…

@pezdacandyboi Ай бұрын

Does he bring his own potatoes and avocados? Or do you just eat what the aid station has and supplement with geld n stuff

@Kelly_Ben 10 күн бұрын

It depends on the race. They usually email you shortly before the race to specify what they'll have. That way you can test it out, or know what to bring. I just attempted a 100k whose aid stations had nothing but sugar... gels, gummies etc. Normally I eat real food and supplement with that. I suffered, and learned that if they don't specify they've got sandwiches, soups, quesadillas, Mac n cheese, potatoes etc... I'd better be bringing my own.

If Kenyan\Ethiopian had more interest in ultra running they would be the fastest runners, ever

@VeejayRampay Ай бұрын

lightness in lower limbs is less of a factor in ultra running than in marathon though so not sure that their dominance in road long distance running would translate directly it'd be interesting to see though

@lekcindr 22 күн бұрын

it never ceases to amaze me how in a sport that is completely about efficiency, nobody EVER discusses the importance of running form. It's really pretty amazing, particularly when most people are heal strikers.

@jalexb503 22 күн бұрын

Kilian mixes the heel strike and mid foot strike while running downhill though. Your point is that elite athletes don’t heel strike. You’re wrong. Running sprints and strides will adjust the form and you have to listen to your body and properly recover and address injuries. People have done form breakdowns of Kilian’s and they always say his form is wrong. Really? His form is wrong but he wins 1st place? Okay. Yeah.

@lekcindr 21 күн бұрын

@@jalexb503 didn’t take in your whole reply but I wasn’t referring to Kilians form or I would have said so specifically. The video is about running tips. Form should be a top tip for and from anyone.
