About 80 days before the Backyard Ultra, so the weekly mileage is starting to ramp up. Most weeks, Mondays and Fridays are my rest days.

As I get to my training peak in the next 6-8 weeks, I’ll be averaging 70+ mile weeks 😬

Backyard ultras is crazy! Wish you the best on the race!

I can’t even image myself running for more than 8 hours lol

Cheers! You can always work into it! I didn’t start running until turning 30 (2017). Started with 5ks, worked to a marathon. Didn’t like running on pavement, so I switched to trails and then found ultras. Started with 50ks, then transitioned to 50 milers a couple years ago. Backyard is all about finding your forever pace and just digging in 😬
