Base Building for Ultra
Not ready for a 50K plan yet? This 12-week program builds the aerobic engine you need before starting ultra-specific training.
What This Plan Does
Builds Consistency
The goal is running 4-5 days per week without injury. We start with what you can do and build from there.
Grows Your Long Run
By week 12, your long run will be 13-15 miles — enough to start our First 50K plan with confidence.
Introduces Time on Feet
Ultra running is about duration, not speed. This plan teaches you to enjoy (or at least tolerate) hours of forward motion.
Who This Plan Is For
- ✓Runners who can currently run 3-5 miles comfortably
- ✓People stepping up from 5K/10K distances
- ✓Runners returning from a break who need to rebuild
Full week-by-week breakdown coming soon.
