Ultramarathon Training Resources

Ultrarunning is where distance running gets weird โ€“ itโ€™s less about intensity and results, and more about becoming a crazy endurance monster that can run for hours โ€“ nay, days โ€“ on end.

Whether youโ€™re looking for a suitable ultramarathon training plan, gear recommendations, or guidance on the best ways to train โ€“ weโ€™ve got free resources and guidelines for every ability level.

Once you step into the world of ultramarathons (an ultramarathon is any run longer than 26.2 miles), the rules change.

Youโ€™re running for mind-bending, hallucination-inducing distances. Races become more about simply getting to the end rather than worrying about speed or performance.

More and more, ultras are less about one continuous run โ€“ but involve crazy challenges like the 4x4x48 challenge.

And itโ€™s addictive. Running ultras is where I found my passion โ€“ the feeling of going out and covering epic distances on foot, pushing your personal boundaries is something simply unforgettable.

A great place to start is our free Ultramarathon Training Bootcamp โ€“ where Iโ€™ll send you essential information about how to train for a marathon over the next few days.

And if you want to really get the most out of your ultramarathon training, check out my Ultra Runner’s Playbook – my extensive online course with hours of exclusive, expert-led video tutorials and downloadables on getting marathon-ready!
