Trail & ultra running from Wild Ginger Running
Sports:Running
This month's training chat with coach, physio and Summer Spine 108 mile winner Tim Pigott from HP3 Coaching (https://www.hp-3.co.uk). So, announcement - I actually can't do the Montane Lakeland 100 this year because although I've run plenty of 50 milers in the past, I didn't during 2020-2022 because of pregnancy, birth and getting back to it, so I don't meet the entry requirements.
I am actually relieved because the more I looked into it and started training for ML100, the more I understood how hard it is, and also I might not be ready for 100 miles just yet - there's no rush, respect the distance, focus on the ML50 and then choose a 100 miler after hopefully completing that successfully.
So, which one to choose....? This required a spreadsheet of 20 of the best UK 100 mile races (available to Patreon supporters or YouTube members only! Sign up here https://www.patreon.com/WildGingerRunning) so I can compare all the aspects and choose the most inspiring, least hard one for either autumn 2023 or spring 2024.
