This is crazy- or courageous. I like experimenting with my training- pushing the limits, testing the standards; and crushing expectations. Is this not the JOY in life and in doing what we love?
My lead up to a big race typically calls for a solid 10-14 day taper. I’m not doing that- instead I’m putting a big block of training in days before standing on the START line to see how well I can run on tired legs.
Cocodona 250 is two months away and this could be a terrible idea or a great idea. I don’t mind failing and I have four 200 mile races this year to try different training strategies. After almost 15 years as an ultra runner, it’s incredible to see how our bodies adapt, strengthen and grow. Let’s see what happens after this weekend!

Something you’ll never hear me say “wasn’t crazy fast, just a 6 minute pace.” Woman is an absolute beast

Sally, I mentioned in a previous video that I planned to run my first 100 because of you. That was 2 years ago, got the buckle, and I’ve run another since and have 2 more this year! I think about your training tips every time I plan a week and so far I’ve taken 4 hours off my 100 mile time! Can’t wait for your book. My 12 year old son is running trail races now too. You truly are an inspiration! Your “couch to 250” comment made me chuckle.

Thanks for being raw. "I'm tired, but it doesn't matter what I feel like. It matters if I do the work." That really resonated with me on days that I'm exhausted and don't feel like giving my 100%.

Curious about the hand held hydration. Going through all kinds of experiments with how to carry different amounts of hydration. Wondering why maybe the best female ultra runner of our time is using it - hate crap on the back/waist/chest? Like getting some hand/forearm/bicep/shoulder work along the way? Anyone have thoughts? Hand held is the one way I haven't tried yet, but apparently it works for the best trail runner I've seen...

@i_would_but_i_wont Жыл бұрын

Sally, do you do any hormone replacement therapy (ie, estrogen), or even testosterone supplementation? I know it's still new for women (hrt). Maybe that comes across as personal, but I think it's fair for an 'influencer' to be transparent about such things, as it could be directly responsible for their achievements and fitness. Anyway, I'm a fan and want a better understanding on how to balance weight training with running (done naturally).

@eimearrosenicholl3734 Жыл бұрын

Testosterone replacement is illegal under WADA conditions even if the athlete has menopausal symptoms related to low testosterone. As far as I know there are no TUEs for that. Estrogen and progesterone replacement are allowed.

@i_would_but_i_wont Жыл бұрын

@@eimearrosenicholl3734 Thanks for the clarity. Afaik, estrogen and progesterone replacement essentially allow the female athlete to stay younger and are effectively the same thing as trt for men. Imo, if someone is giving fitness advice publicly (and making a living off of it) they should be transparent about their use of it.

@eimearrosenicholl3734 Жыл бұрын

@@i_would_but_i_wont they're not really the same. Trt is rarely needed in men as testosterone declines very slowly, whereas women experience a more dramatic decline with menopause. Also hrt doesn't keep women young (sadly). There is a rich interplay of other hormones beyond just estrogen and progesterone that drop with age and the cyclical pattern of female hormones pre menopause isn't exactly replaced by HRT. The doses are supposed to approximate levels pre menopause but it's not exactly the same.
