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.

Running 44@60 - tips, ideas and advice for your first ultra marathon or marathon
Black RAT - DNF!
Saturday August 3rd - The Black RAT (Roseland August Trail) - 32 miles from St Anthonys Head to Porthpean.
I pulled at the 21 mile checkpoint at Gorran Haven. Not injured. Just not able to go on.
What happened?
Nutrition - did I eat enough and of the right things at the right time? - maybe not.
Hydration - did I get that wrong? I thought it was ok but I almost certainly didn't drink enough water
Training - did I do enough and of the right sort? Definitely not. I just didn't do the mileage and I did no training on the course.
Lessons learnt? - Plenty.
Will I still do the Arc 50? - As I was nearing Gorran Haven it was a definitely not but now maybe it's a possibility. I need to focus and create a proper training plan starting at the beginning of September.
Big thanks to everyone at Mudcrew for putting on a great event and to all the marshals and supporters out on the course.
