Prior to Starting the training, guides listed below it's recommended that you have consistently been running a minimum of "X" hrs per week.
➡️ 25K - To get the most out of this plan, we recommend that you can currently run or run/hike comfortably for at least 30–45 minutes at a conversational pace (RPE 2/3) without needing extended recovery. A basic level of cardiovascular fitness, consistency with light weekly activity, and the ability to run 2–3 days per week is ideal before starting. If that sounds like you, you're ready to go. Lace up, take it one week at a time, and remember: this isn’t just about finishing—it’s about building strength, resilience, and a deep love for the trails.
➡️50K - Before starting, it’s recommended you can run or run/hike for at least 2 hours at a moderate effort. Over the course of this program, you’ll progress from building a solid aerobic base to peak long-run efforts that prepare you for the demands of race day. You’ll train smart, avoid burnout, and grow your belief in what’s possible—because this isn’t just about finishing 50K, it’s about becoming an ultrarunner.
➡️50Mi - Recommended Fitness Level: Able to run or hike 2 hours at an easy to moderate effort and have been running 3-4 days a week for a minimum of 6 months.
➡️100K and 100M - Training for your first 100K (62 miles) is a big step—and when you’re ready for it. This 16-week plan is designed for runners who have completed at least a 50K or Trail marathon and are comfortably running 25–35 miles per week. You don’t need to be fast, but you do need to be consistent. If you can run 3–4 times per week, handle back-to-back long runs of 2+ hours and 1+ hour, and are excited to level up your endurance, this guide is built for you.
