I knew it would happen eventually.

I have been training without injury for the last 5 months and then suddenly with 7 weeks to go I take a massive fall and things have started to fall apart.

I'm on the mend, and I will be ready for this race in 4 week time.

Welcome to my VLOG about Becoming an Ultra Runner.

I'm building up from Half Marathon distance races to my first 50k ultra marathon and eventually up to 100-mile race distances.

The vlog will cover all aspects of my ultramarathon training, such as training plans, running, gear, diet, and fitting that all around my busy work life.

I want to complete one of these races before my 40th birthday:

- UTMB
- Western States
- Hardrock 100

Trying to keep to the following schedule is tough, but I absolutely love every day and film these vlogs helps me stay on target. The 80/20 running is working well for me.

Monday - Legs Day, 
Tuesday - Running (Intervals) 
Wednesday - Easy Run (Active Recovery)
Thursday - Trail Running
Friday - Circuits
Saturday - Running (Active Recovery)
Sunday - Easy Long Runs
