EP 3.1 is actually a rewind from The Mettleset, and if you havenโt checked that out, you really should. Released a year ago, this EP is still very relevant for anyone who has ultra-cycling on the ๐ง . Maybe you want to be an ultra-cyclist? Maybe you are one already, or maybe youโre just curious to know how one can race distances 700 km to 7000 km +, all self supported. Well, todayโs episode aims to share a good overview of the sport with Niel Copeland, one of the worldโs most experienced ultra-cycling coaches. We chat getting started, training differences for women and men, the timeframe & considerations needed, training yourself mentally, race mgmt, the beauty in the experience, race selection and we touch upon nutrition. We only touch upon nutrition because EP 3.2 is live now on all things ultra-eating.
