Top Tips For Ultra Running
A few weeks back I shared that VALA pal Rhys @creature_of_discomfort was training for his first ultra (which he absolutely smashed, by the way!).
Knowing that VALA has so many amazing ultra lovers in our community, I posted a story asking for your top advice for anyone doing their first ultra and the responses were great.
Peep a few of the top tips below, because sharing is caring...
▪️ Walking the hills is not only acceptable but it’s a highly recommended race strategy!
▪️ Take your time and enjoy it
▪️ Pack a toothbrush and when things get tough, brush your teeth and freshen up
▪️ Use chafe stick
▪️ Embrace the hurt
