Loving reading all your food suggestions!! keep them coming!

@rebeccacutts1182 3 года назад

This is the first time I've ever heard 50 miles described as a short race 😂

@chrispanton3577 3 года назад

Checking what's on offer at the aid stations a big tip for sure, I did a 100k in the Czech /Polish mountains couple years ago and most aid stations all on offer was tea and dry bread with either jam.. or lard! The locals loved it but neither appealed. Luckily I planned to be pretty self sufficient (with a couple mini pork pies I swear by to settle all the sugary stuff on long runs). However at the halfway at 5am there was a glorious goulash breakfast which was amazing. Great event, one of my most proud to finish.

I found a packet of soft mints helped to keep a fresh feeling in the mouth later in my 50 miler. Have a good race.

I used your earlier advice re back to back long runs and I used your advice re Tailwind from this one. I ran 100km last Friday (13 hours 2 mins). I had some of your food suggestions with me but drank only Tailwind. I was never hungry and did not have a single problem throughout. A great experience. My aim was to do 60 miles in one day at the age of 60 and I was delighted with the outcome. I did, however, have the benefit of my son cycling the whole route with me, carrying the drinks etc. And it was along a canal so no hills. Easy! Well done on your great performance in the 50 mile race. You have a great positive attitude that everyone can learn from. Well done and thank you.

@SarahPlace 3 года назад

wow brendan that is AMAZING!!! what an inspiration! i sure hope i am still running distances like that into my 60s, that is awesome congratulations!! glad i could help in some way :)

I was reading the description of the aid stations for the Tarawera Ultra in New Zealand. I think they would finish me off as much as the run. One station serves tea and scones with china teacups! Good luck with your run Sarah 👍

@tombargerstock3419 3 года назад

Good luck in the race. I enjoy nut butter and jam on a flour tortilla!!!! Taste great, goes down easy and plenty of what you need to fuel a long run!

@Macieboy1 3 года назад

Sarah - I have been following Ben for a while and just found your channel - watched them back to back today. Have to say inspirational and as someone else said you are a natural. Really interesting very informative top quality keep it coming and well done.Also SE London local so places I can run thanks

@terrypursey4447 3 года назад

Great tips Sarah, my last ultra I just guessed what I might need, was a 50k race so survived. But your video has highlighted the benefits of good nutrition/calorie planning, so I will adopt that for my next race.

@SarahPlace 3 года назад

yeah it's also just as easy to get a bit carried away with it and over-plan but just taking a bit of time to figure out some rough quantities can certainly help!

@paulwoodhouse4517 3 года назад

Great video, best of luck with the 50 miler. I have a marathon each week for the foreseeable.

@marlahernandez9267 2 года назад

Thank you for the video! I've run 54 ultras and have whittled down my race day nutrition to GU, water and S-caps. That works best for me:)

Very useful ! Bonked at the weekend in my second ultra and it was not nice! But ruin was terrible, thanks for the tips!

@eloiseb558 3 года назад

Super helpful video, thank you! I’ve always struggled with fuelling long runs/races, so it’s great to have some ideas to try. Good luck with your ultra!

@SarahPlace 3 года назад

no worries eloise. definitely check out some of the drink mixes in that case because it allows you to fuel without even really trying to!

@eloiseb558 3 года назад

Sarah Place I will do, thanks for the suggestion!

@tmantony5660 3 года назад

Best of luck.Make us all proud of you.Thanks.

@SarahPlace 3 года назад

haha will try my best😅

@reinmansmith 3 года назад

A plus 1 for the Tailwind, I’ve recently tried some and it seems to work very well, keeping me fuelled without (as you say) unfortunate trips into the bushes!! 😝 Also agree on the Clif shotblocks which are easy to take as you run and no ‘sticky fingers’ 👍

@enriquegonzalez2679 3 года назад

@jozetrselic 8 месяцев назад

Thank for this! Just about to go for my first over 100k event... This is super helpful

@graham8854 3 года назад

Thanks for sharing. I'm off to try some Tailwind now :-) On my long runs I have taken homemade flapjacks and found they work well. Made from porridge oats, golden syrup, butter, and pounded seeds of choice (sunflower, pumpkin etc). Pounding them up makes them easier to digest.

@austinstanley859 3 года назад

I found my go to electrolyte mix at a half marathon race. Fluid Hydration sponsored the race, and I grabbed a cup and it worked so well I used it during a my marathon and marathon training plan this year.

@mhardingspiderfan 3 года назад

I'm running my first ultra (50 miler) in October. I tried many different things, and I think I've narrowed it down to tailwind, stinger chews, fig bars, plain potato chips, pb&j sandwiches, and gels. The event I was planning on racing in was cancelled, so I'll be running all 50 miles around the town where I live. 10 laps of a 5 mile loop, passing by my house (and aid station) on every lap.

@bethrainbowrunning 3 года назад

thank you beth! congrats on the swim run, it actually dare i say think it looked like fun!😅

@bethrainbowrunning 3 года назад

Sarah Place thank you! 😂😂 it was so fun... although they shortened the last few swims due to currents but probably worked in my favour with more running 🏃‍♀️

@leana.b9481 3 года назад

Thanks for this video, i learned a lot. I did a 50 miler 2 weeks ago, ive done so many but still end up getting sick after 30 miles. I cant manage more then 1000 calories. I will try eating more often like you suggested and maybe drinking my calories. Thanks for this content and keep them coming!

@RussiasSufferingInUkraine 3 года назад

9pm and this video has put me in the mood for a peanut butter and jam white bread sandwich. Thanks for the tip about Tailwind. I've heard it recommended but I've tended to use ORS electrolytes only with food of choice being peanut butter and jam white bread sandwiches and pretzels. I'll try out Tailwind.

@joncadman4935 3 года назад

All the very best for the weekend Sarah, can't beat a few Ginger Nut biscuits stashed in the bottom of the race vest, 50 calories a biscuit and good for settling tummy troubles, have a super run,

@SarahPlace 3 года назад

oh yes nice one jon, that's a great shout! ginger is supposed to be great for an upset tum isnt it!

@rgweaver 3 года назад

Very helpful. What I eat is pretty similar, but I like to add a pb&j (or honey) sandwich or two. Best of luck on the race!

@SarahPlace 3 года назад

nice ray, can't beat a good pb&j!

@jacquinixon9587 3 года назад

I love watermelon during a race (probably because it tends to be warmer here in Australia and watermelon is so refreshing) so I wouldn't use Tailwind - the combination of these 2 causes massive GI issues!! Katie Kookaburra has a great recipe for a homemade rice/oats based bar mixed with raspberries which she uses on long rides, also great for ultra runners! Best of luck Sarah for your 50 miler!!!

@ivylovesrunning 3 года назад

Thank you. I found her video and it looks delicious. I may test this recipe out this week. It looks yummy.

@SomethingNick 3 года назад

So glad you started this channel Sarah! I was wondering if you know of any beginner friendly running clubs around Central London or Stratford? Keen to get more into the community, if they've started up again after lockdown!

@SarahPlace 3 года назад

check out victoria park harriers or east london runners!

@garethmaccauley3507 3 года назад

Good Luck at the weekend. For the marathons and 50kms I’ve switched around as you do the more as you say you learn. I’m on the gels and salt tablets currently. But great advice is take on early. As no point in waiting till you bonk before taking gels etc

@SarahPlace 3 года назад

yes nice gareth, the earlier the better for sure!

@ricodelavega4511 Год назад

funny on the coke issue, i rarely drink in real life but it is a must go to during a race. I frequently volunteer at aid stations, and most people drinking coke say the same thing.

@evka-kc2kx 3 года назад

Best of luck with your race! I've only done marathons so far and I usually struggle with the liquid /gel diet. I find that soft foods like mini chocolate croissants (for example from 7days) or banana loaf bars (soreens) are agreeable with my stomach even during a run so I usually have one or a couple on me.

@SarahPlace 3 года назад

yeah gels are certainly not everyone's cup of tea! but great that you have found something that works! those banana soreens are so good!

@Kelly_Ben 3 года назад

Chocolate croissants!? I hadn't even thought of trying those on runs, and I sure do love them. Thanks!

@jdidsbury 3 года назад

Good luck, Sarah! I think you and Ben will be a good 2 hours ahead of me. :)

@MaiTravelSite Год назад

Did my first ultra trail last Saturday (first race of anything actually), 50k . Gu gels were awesome, and here's something to consider. It was very hot (35C) throughout the race and at one point I found a guy on the ground under a tree, seemed to be in rough shape and he confirmed he wasn't doing too well, asked for a candy or something. I had 2 gels left and some bars, but I don't think he could have eaten a bar so I have him one of my 2 remaining gels. He felt better and I continued, left him there to decide if he would wait for the crew or continue. But that gel I gave him would have come very handy 2 hours later, so my tip/ suggestion is to carry more gels than what you think you might need. Oh and aid stations don't always have what they say they are going to have...at least from my first experience (and it was a UTMB race). Great vid Sarah!

@jamiexavier6654 3 года назад

Great video Sarah! Probably best to avoid all the foods that I am consuming for carbs....pizzas, burger and chips!

@mikelrobertsbeckett1454 3 года назад

I enjoyed watching this and it was very informative, its a shame I've never ran longer than 30k so never had the need of having food with me but I hope one day I can and become a long distance runner like yourself :) thanks for the video it was awesome as always
