Good advice on those new to 50k, there are so many things to go right or wrong when going that far! I've done 13 50k's, & still learning a bunch. Usually do between Nov.-Feb. (cooler months in southeast). Nutrition (calories/salt intake/electrolyte replacement) is critical for trying to keep even pace and not bonking! However I never use vest, just hand held and stop for 45 seconds at each aid station to hydrate & get calories. Those Speedland shoes are EXPENSIVE ($275), I do agree find shoes & socks that work for u and stick with them. I have done few 50k with water crossings or even been in downpour for hours and injinji toe socks never get blisters or problems. I like the having friends doing races and we'll go out for few training runs (usually long runs building up) during the 2-3 months before. However you must realize everyone has different abilities and to run your race.

I needed this video I’m thinking of doing a 50K in the near future 🤞🏾.

@CJFinley Месяц назад

Heck yeah thanks for watching! Which 50k are you looking at doing?!

@ExJapTer 3 месяца назад

Great stuff, thank you. I just completed my 4th regular marathon and now have my eyes on a local 60km race. Its nice getting tips straight from a beginner who just lived it. Also...it never once occurred to me to hire a coach - running is my hobby because it isnt very expensive. 😂

@CJFinley 3 месяца назад

Congrats on the 4th marathon finish Paul! I’m excited for you to run the 60km and glad you like my unconventional advice lol. I felt the same way, I didn’t want a coach because I wanted to just endure the process on my own (both the wins and the mistakes ha). Since that race I ran my first marathon (Austin TX Marathon) while pushing a disabled woman the entire race. Again, no coach. If I can help for your 60k in anyway let me know. Goodluck!

@@CJFinley thanks for the reply. Right now I am just trying to keep my weekly mileage up and hitting hills and trails more often than the road stuff I did for the marathon. I also think I have a friend 80% convinced to join me, which would make it even more awesome.

@nksbits 6 месяцев назад

Great tips! Thanks for sharing. Attempting my first 60K in end of March

@CJFinley 6 месяцев назад

Heck yeah Nithin! I am stoked for you. What was your biggest takeaway from the video? Also, what race are you running?

@bobbymeade2099 6 месяцев назад

One of the things I have for my upcoming 50k is sour patch kids.

@CJFinley 6 месяцев назад

Have you ever heard of the brand “smart sweets?” I brought their peach rings with me!

@bobbymeade2099 6 месяцев назад

@@CJFinley I have, but they have a little too much fiber for me to totally trust for an ultramarathon.

@CJFinley 6 месяцев назад

@@bobbymeade2099 Fair enough! You could try them in training and see how well they sit. I don't like extreme sugar spikes so they work better for me compared to high sugar alternatives.

@bobbymeade2099 6 месяцев назад

@@CJFinley I have tried them, and thought they were surprisingly good for something with no sugar. Sugar (and caffeine) don't really affect me (from an energy standpoint), so it isn't something I avoid.
