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.

Andy & Trevor's Big Day Out at the 2021 Classic Quarter
Having run the 2020 Classic Quarter as a relay of two Andy Williams and Trevor Lee went the whole hog and did the full 44 miles in 2021.
This was the finale of Trevor’s 44@60 campaign which raised over £7000 for the Children’s Hospice South West Music Therapy programme. Trevor has also written a book about his buildup and adventure – it is both a business and running book and is now available on Amazon via this link: 12 Business Lessons from Running an Ultra Marathon. Proceeds from the book are also going to the hospice.
In this episode of the podcast Andy and Trevor reflect on their big day out sharing tips and ideas along the course which will be particularly useful for those running the full event for the first time.
We talk about eating, shoe changes, crew points, motivation, not going off course and our overall experience.
Note that towards the end of the podcast Andy makes reference to the Arc of Attrition 50 which as these show notes are updated he successfully went on to complete the end of January 2022.
