In this episode of She Runs Ultras, I’m diving into the topic of racing ultras close together—specifically, why I’m running two 50Ks just four weeks apart, how I’m managing my training in between, and what I recommend if you find yourself in a similar situation.

Last week, I shared the behind-the-scenes of my Bloodroot 50K finish (spoiler alert: it was a grind but worth it!). Now, I’ve got another 50K on deck for next weekend, so I thought it would be super helpful to talk through:

Why I’m doing two races so close together
How I’m adjusting my training in the 4-week gap
A recent convo with a client who’s racing a 50-miler and a 50K back-to-back—and how her “I need another long run!” mindset might sound familiar (and why I disagreed)

I’m opening up a few 60-minute strategy sessions for women training for ultras who want support but aren’t ready for full membership. If you're interested, join my email list—I’ll be dropping the sign-up link there first!
