Running 44@60 - tips, ideas and advice for your first ultra marathon or marathon
If you are thinking about a first ultra marathon or marathon this is the podcast for you. Running 44@60 began as a motivational and educational tool to help host Trevor Lee celebrate in 2021 a landmark birthday by running his first ultra marathon - the 44 mile Classic Quarter on the Cornish coastal path from Lizard Village to Lands End.
The run was completed and the podcast has evolved and features runners and running specialists offering tips and advice from training to nutrition via race planning, kit, etc…
Most episodes are around 25 minutes of fast paced, energising and inspiring tips, advice and ideas.
