This 20-week plan is ideal for athletes who are relatively new to the 100 mile distance, or for those who are looking for a lower volume plan that will still enable them to finish the distance. It is first-timer friendly, as well as helpful for those who may have done a few 100 milers but are looking for something more structured and systematic for their training.
The plan includes information about how to set heart rate zones, and how to use RPE to manage and pace effort. Prior to starting this plan, you should be able to run 3-4 hours per week, with a recent long run (in the past 4 weeks) of at least 2 hours.
Athletes who embark on the journey to run 100 miles should have experience with ultramarathons, and we strongly recommend having run at least 50 miles in the past 12-24 months before attempting to train for and run 100 miles.
This plan includes a one-time email consult. I recommend reviewing the plan *first* and asking all of your questions in one email. Email is: maria@nolimitsendurance.com.
If you would like additional one-to-one assistance or coach-guidance, 30-60 minute consults are available for 10% off the current rate. Consultations can be done via phone, Zoom, or similar service for advice about pacing, nutrition, questions about zones, and the like. Athletes local to Conifer, CO can arrange for in-person consults as well. Note: these consultations are not included in the original purchase price of this plan. Email maria@nolimitsendurance.com to set one up. Pricing for consults can be found here: https://nolimitsendurance.com/coaching-plans/personal-sessions/.
