Think you can't run a 100 mile ultra? Well the truth is....you absolutely can! Especially if you read this awesome new book by Jen Benson.

For example, did you know, Courtney DNFed her first 100 miler? There are lots of great tips and bits of advice in our chat, but even more in the book, so pop it on your Christmas list NOW! Thanks for the lovely chat again Jen, it's always really great to connect with you...and maybe I'll do a 100 miler one day.......Originally on YouTube here https://youtube.com/live/FtjZvT_7C3cBuy The Path We Runhttps://amzn.to/4fjbby1Buy more of Jen and Sim's books!https://amzn.to/4dSmhc0Live broadcast and podcast sponsors are Naak Sports Nutrition!

Yikes everybody, so I've somehow managed to book an actual TV celeb for today's live chat at 2pm - it's Patrick Grant, award-winning designer and one of the judges from The Great British Sewing Bee! He has a sustainable, plastic-free clothing company called Community Clothing, all made at a factory in Blackburn with local workers, models and photographers. They have a small range of sportswear ideal for summer running - namely t-shirts, vests, shorts and hoodies. They aren't highly technical garments like SOAR, but they are much lower in price! Like £35 for a t-shirt, normal prices. So this is going to be a super interesting chat.Originally on YouTube here https://youtube.com/live/Whw9HC-FoXoPatrick's book Less: Stop Buying So Much Rubbish: How Having Fewer, Better Things Can Make Us Happier https://amzn.to/46ASDG2Community Clothing website (apparently the sports socks are fab!

Thanks so much to Sally Gilson for today's episode. Four months ago, ultra runner and Wild Ginger Running Patreon Sally badly broke her ankle while on a hike in the Lake District to celebrate her 50th birthday. The damage was so bad she had to be stretchered off the hill by Keswick Mountain Rescue. They had to put her foot agonisingly back in place on the hill quickly or she risked losing it altogether. After surgery, two pins and a metal plate, Sally's bone is gradually fusing back together but she is navigating a life without running for a good while. She was aiming for a 100 miler this summer but crewed for her buddy instead. We caught up with Sally to find out more about her accident, her subsequent recovery and how she's coping with being a runner who can't run for possibly a whole year.

Today I'm super interested to be chatting to two of my Patreons Sean O'Keefe and Christian Poulton about how they nailed the Arc of Attrition 50 first time this Jan 2024. I got timed out about 12 miles from the end reaching the Godevry checkpoint 15mins after the 8pm cut off, so I'll be comparing notes to see what I need to do differently next time if I give it another shot in 2025 and we'll be compiling a top 10 tips between us all to help you out.

Today we're covering the 5 most common mistakes not to make the week before your ultra with incredible, unassailable coach and physio, Tim Pigott from HP3 Coaching because I have the Arc of Attrition 50 miler on Saturday and I'm about to do it in a fairly new pair of my fave ultra running shoes, without great prior training and feeling a cold from my toddler coming on - should you run at all the week beforehand? So Tim's going to explain what not to do just before your next ultra, and a few last minute things that will help you out and make you feel more confident. Thanks coach Tim!

Delighted to chat to the incredible Graeme Brouder who was the last Brit to cross the line in the 2023 Spine Race, 268 miles along the Pennine Way from Edale to Kirk Yetholm, which takes place in the depths of winter every January. What makes Graeme tick? What training did he do and how did he stay mentally strong enough never to give up? Let's find out in this live chat!

Use code WILDGINGERRUNNING for 15% off https://uk.naak.com/Why create last & proud of it?I've reached a stage where I am (in a nice way) non-plussed about elite athletes winning races and setting records. I used to be in awe of these lofty achievements, but I have a lot more in common with and even more awe for the people in the middle of the pack, the back of the pack, and the person who comes LAST OF ALL. So this new series for 2024 celebrates the ‘normal' ultra runners who come last in some of the UK's most famous races and are quite rightly, very proud of their amazing achievement. Just like us, these unsung heroes have busy stressful lives filled with jobs, kids/pets/relatives, mental and/or physical health issues and injuries. Their training and racing has great highs and terrible lows, but they keep on running/jogging/walking/crawling to that finish line. What did it take? What was their training like? How did the race pan out? How did they beat those cut offs against all odds? And what hard-won golden nuggets of advice can they give to us ‘normal' ultra runners about this race in particular, ultra running and life in general. I hope you like this series and feel inspired by it, just like I do.My book, The Ultimate Trail Running Handbook https://amzn.to/3jgKvTyPlease like and subscribe here on YouTube https://linktr.ee/ClaireWGRFollow me on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/wildgingerrunning/Support me on Patreon https://www.patreon.com/WildGingerRunningMeet me at Nene Valley trail races https://nenevalleyraces.wordpress.com/Join this channel to get access to perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWEw4ys-SlXU1pCp6oyMemQ/join Fancy a show without ads?

NEW SERIES FOR 2024! Sneak preview first episode. I'm going to be honest here - I've reached a stage where I am (in a nice way) non-plussed about elite athletes winning races and setting records. I used to be in awe of these lofty achievements, but I have a lot more in common with and even more awe for the people in the middle of the pack, the back of the pack, and the person who comes LAST OF ALL.

How did the race pan out? How did they beat those cut offs against all odds? And what hard-won golden nuggets of advice can they give to us ‘normal' ultra runners about this race, ultra running and life in general. This episode we speak to the fantastic Lizzie Hughes about her last place on the infamous Arc of Attrition 50 2023, which I am signed up for 27 Jan 2024. I may be the next last place person the way my training has been going! ;) So I need all the help from Lizzie that I can get, and maybe you do too for your next ultra whichever if might be.

Delighted to chat to athlete Kristian Morgan about his incredible Appalachian Trail southbound, supported record of 45 days, 4 hours and 27 minutes, finishing on 16 Sept 2023. Kristian has shaved over 18 hours off the previous record held by the legendary Karl ‘Speedgoat' Metlzer in 2016.
