Cocodona 250 Training Camp Recap and How to See if Your Ultra Training is Working
To put my training for the Cocodona 250 miler to the test, I ran 100 miles in three days on the Cocodona course as a part of a self-designed training camp. Why? To see my strengths and weaknesses with my current training and to gain confidence for race day!
Training camps are an excellent way to assess your readiness for your next ultra. And in this episode, I show you how I designed this camp so you can design your own.
I also share my biggest takeaways and lessons from the camp, crazy stories from the camp itself, and training principles that helped me have a very successful training camp (without feeling any soreness or over fatigue after the huge weekend!).
Thank you so much for listening to the podcast!

The Running Mental Shift to Achieve any Ultrarunning Goal or Running Goal
Even if you follow the best training plan for your next ultra, our minds can work against us to fall short of our running goal.
But there is a way to take control of your mind so that it works FOR you as opposed to AGAINST you. And all it takes is one mindset shift to completely put that into practice.
And when you develop this mindset shift, it will allow you to achieve any ultrarunning goal you set yourself towards. And yes, it sounds like it’s clickbait, but I credit this mindset shift to a majority of the progress I’ve made in my ultrarunning career.
And this episode will share with you that exact mindset shift and action items on how to implement it in your daily lifestyle.
So whatever big goal you have as an ultrarunner, this will be the episode that will show you how to do it!
In this, we cover why our brains tend to limit us, what the most powerful belief to have as an ultrarunner is, how to destroy negative thinking, and how you can make a plan to achieve any goal you set your mind to as an ultrarunner.
Huge thank you for listening to the show!

Safety Tips for Ultrarunners: How to Stay Protected on the Trail or Road
When we feel safe on the runs, we can fully enjoy it. And when you take the right precautions to feel safer, it can give you much more peace of mind when you’re out there, while also giving you the best chance to protect yourself in case something extreme happens.
Given the recent horrific news lately on runners losing their lives, I felt it was important to record this topic on running safety to help provide resources and tips to stay safe on the trails (shoutout to Joshua for also recommending the topic).
In this episode, we cover safety precautions you can take on both the roads and trails while running to help give yourself the best chance of reducing harm.
We cover safety precautions from violence from others, weather safety tips, precautious measures to take in case of injury, how to handle inclement weather, and gear to use to help increase safety on the runs.
Thank you for listening to this very important episode of the podcast.
