50K training plan for beginners - tips for success 

Thankyou! Running my 1st 50k in October… enjoyed this video! Txs

Some great practical advice presented in a straight forward way. Many thanks. Agree on clearly understanding your why. I’m doing my first 50km soon so very helpful to view. Have fun.

Great advice! I have my first 50K on the calendar this year. Would love to see your free training plan but the link isn't working for me. 😞

Also, if you have access to the course do your weekend long runs on that course

Thank you so much! You've helped answer a lot of questions that I've had, plus some bonus info!

Training link isn't working. Can you please fix? And thank you for the video.

This was really helpful! Thank you for posting this. :)

Thank You for sharing -- appreciate your opinion

Thank you for this video.

Really great video!!

It's a new year with new running goals! What are my running goals for 2020? Well I'd like to run a marathon overseas (if I'm lucky enough to get in the lottery)! Otherwise I plan to run at least 1 marathon and another 50k. Besides that I just want to have fun running with my running buddies, stay healthy and strong, and laugh alot! What about you? What are your running goals for 2020?

Great video , subscribed

Consider using something else beside Vaseline which is great for machinery and it’s filled with chemicals we have no idea what damage is done to the body.

Hello, I just turned 60, 3months ago. I was never into running and only jogged a few times. When looking at my weight and feeling the fatigue of even small efforts I Kew it was hight time to change. I started, without any method, to do some jogging.(99% on treadmill as its too cold for me here to go out) Just run as far as I could and then walk. After about 1month I had to stop for about 10days as I had bad groin pain. But In 3month time I got to a 10K. That was about 3weeks ago. I only did 2 more 5K run and then had to stop again because of soreness. Since I read and watched a lot of info about training and running. Due to the info I also decided to change into minimalistic barefoot shoes. Thereby I also take the opportunity to restart my running with barefoot shoes. (Didn't started yet) Now I got confused or hesitant about what method to follow. Being I will have to start as a 60y young overweight person, running with minimalistic footwear, what would be best ? I really like the Chi-running approach with more natural movement, less fatigue, less stress, etc. But there the focus, evidence the form, is cadence. Then there is the heatrate zones and Zone 2 training, and the you have the MAF training. What would be best in my situation ?? My goal is certainly not to become a fast marathon runner. But I would like to become a relative , for me personally, good trail runner and if possible do a ultrarun. I prefere trail running but due to the fact that I live in a mostly wet and cold area and dislike cold weather really really much, I'm forced to run a lot indoors on a treadmill. (I bought one only 3months ago)

Hello again! I would love to have that training plan but could not find link or where it is.

Hi! Love the video! Do you still have the training plan?

what do your shorts with big pockets look like??

What if you haven’t done a marathon yet?

Tell people or have an accountability person. You're going to have days where you just have zero motivation. They'll help you keep you accountable. Also, rotate your music!

Thanks for sharing your experience, I have a 50k on the 16th May and haven’t ran in 4 weeks - Eek. My first ultra going to be tough. Appreciate your advise!
