Ep. 257 - šŸ¤” How To Decide Which Race Is Right For You

She Runs Ultras

About this episode

Picking the perfect ultra race can feel overwhelming, especially if it’s your first one. In this episode, we’re breaking down the key factors you need to consider so you can find a race that fits your goals, schedule, and lifestyle like a well-worn trail shoe.

From how much time you’ll need to train (hint: at least 20 weeks) to considering the race location, course type, and level of support, we cover it all. We’ll also chat about the environment—think weather, terrain, and even wildlife—and how these can impact your race day.

Plus, we’ll dive into race formats (distance-based vs. time-based) and why it’s worth thinking about your post-race plans before you even hit the starting line.

This episode is packed with tips, examples, and the kind of practical advice that will help you avoid signing up for a race you’re not quite ready for—or one that involves a travel nightmare.Ā 

Tune in, take notes, and get ready to choose your next adventure with confidence.

Whether you’re dreaming of your first 50K or planning your next big challenge, this episode has you covered!
