So, you've decided to enter into the world of ultrarunning or you want to move up in distance or improve your results in long distance events. Simply running consistently will probably get you across the finish line at some point but to reach the potential you know you have, you'll need to be a little more focused in your training. That's where this clinic comes in to help you.
How to get started training for longer distances
How to use periodization in training
How to plan your race schedule
How to cycle your training between races
How to use races to train for goal races
How to recognize when you're overtrained or burned out
How to recover and for how long after a race
How to peak for a goal event
How to taper so you're not flat but still rested
Of course, we'll have our normal format where questions during the talk are encouraged, so come prepared for an open forum!
Clinic is just $35 and will include giveaways from Vi Fuel (best gels in the world) and some nice running gear, like arm warmers, calf compression sleeves, and maybe even some running shirts.

Hill Running Clinic
Tennessee Valley (Mill Valley, CA)
Seems like everyone hates hills. Some think the uphills are too hard and everyone passes them in races. Others are timid on the descents and don't take advantage of our friend, gravity. Putting in the practice and training obviously helps, but knowing certain techniques and practicing them will chop huge chunks of time off your finish results and leave your competitors wondering how you got so fast on hills, especially over technical terrain.
This has become the most popular clinic with a number of repeat participants. You won't want to miss it!

Topics covered:
