Notice I did not necessarily say racing experience, but rather, years of focused running. So that said, I personally recommend aspiring ultrarunners have a few years of shorter distance endurance running/ regular training experience before deciding to tackle a 50 miler. I’m a rose-colored-glasses wearing, dream encouraging, enthusiastic cheerleader for most things in life…but I don’t like seeing people getting hurt. If you are looking for a blog post advocating couch – to – 50 miler, this is not it. 50 milers have become my favorite ultra distance to race, and I’m happy to share this free 50 mile ultramarathon training plan with you. 50 miles is long enough to give you a feeling of extreme accomplishment (and fatigue!), but short enough that you don’t have to miss an entire nights sleep…and then some…like you would with a 100 mile race.
Far, but not too far (you know, relatively speaking). I often joke that 50 milers are the “half marathon” of the ultra world. Last Updated on Augby Heather Hart, ACSM EP, CSCS
