Starting Ultras At 48 - Jeffrey Weiss Part Two

Send us a text

We talk with ultrarunner and author Jeffrey Weiss about starting serious running at 48 and building a late-life endurance journey across marathons, ultras, and Ironman. The thread is mindset and structure: BHAGs, morning routines, smart nutrition, and writing that turns races into lessons.

• why Comrades lit the spark for ultras
• learning from a cutoff and staying in the sport
• run walk cadence and strategic rest for long races
• real-food fuelling, drop bags, and crew support
• morning training and fitting fitness to life stage
• BHAGs borrowed from startups to drive progress
• triathlon skills, Total Immersion, and bike endurance
• ageing well through consistency, strength, and balance
• mental tools, race reports, and reframing setbacks
• how the new book captures an arc others can use

I really do hope you enjoy part two of our chat. And if you haven't listened to part one yet, then please go back in our catalogue and you'll find it there.
