Shooting for a 50 miler this summer. I've long loved cross country but this is a big step up

🥰 which event?

Kaniksu 50 (we'll see if I make it to race day, I'm at least going to do a 30 miler on my own before then)

If I can offer some advice:

1. Walk early and walk often.

2. Practice your fuel plan.

3. IMO - Time on feet > mileage

4. If you have a crew, incorporate them into your training and give them an aid station checklist to go through.

5. Change socks/shoes as needed (I only did one change on a 100 miler, probably should have done one more).

Have fun!!!

I think I've grokked #3, but I'm sure I'll have a hard time on race day. #4 is great advice.

You'll be good! Just keep moving forward.
