Expect the Unexpected: How to Handle Curveballs in Your Ultra

Ultras never go to plan. The runners who finish strong aren’t the ones who hope for a perfect day—they’re the ones who are ready for anything.

In this episode, I break down how to prepare for the inevitable curveballs of ultrarunning: nutrition mishaps, gear fails, weather chaos, and those mental lows that creep in at 3 a.m.

You’ll learn:

Why training in adverse conditions is a hidden superpower
How to fuel flexibly when things don’t go to plan
The art of problem-solving mid-race (without panicking)
Mental strategies to carry you through the final 20% when grit matters most
Quick fixes for common race-day disasters

By the end of this episode, you’ll know how to stay calm, adapt, and finish your ultra feeling strong.
