Conquer the toughest multi-day ultras.

This 22-week program prepares you for the unique demands of stage races and desert ultras such as Marathon des Sables, multi-day mountain challenges, and self-supported expeditions up to ~300 km.

With 4–5 purposeful runs per week, hiking sessions, 2 strength sessions, and guidance for pack training, heat acclimation, and recovery strategies, you’ll build the endurance, durability, and confidence needed to perform across consecutive days of racing.

What’s inside:

• 2 weekly strength & mobility workouts to build resilience
• Progressive long runs and back-to-backs to mimic race fatigue
• Guidance for weighted pack training and terrain-specific prep
• Heat adaptation strategies (treadmill, sauna, layering)
• Recovery and taper phases to arrive strong and fresh

Who it’s for:

• Runners aiming to complete self-supported multi-day expeditions
• Ultra athletes stepping up from 100k/100-mile single-day events to 200-mile plus events in extreme environments
