How to Choose an Ultramarathon Plan (20 Weeks):

• Beginner 100K- If you're new to ultra marathons or your main goal is finishing the distance this plan is for you.  This training plan will have you feeling confident in completing the course and prepare you with the little things that will keep you accountable. The plan starts with long runs of 13 miles and will slowly build up to 30 miles in length over the plan with plenty of recovery days.
• Advanced 100K-  If you're looking to challenge yourself for a course/distance PR this plan is for you. The schedule starts with long runs of 15 miles and will slowly build up to 35 miles in length over the plan with occasional "double long run days" on the weekends to be best prepared on race day.
• Beginner 100 Miles- If this is your first time running 100 miles or you are looking to feel confident in finishing the distance this plan is for you. This training plan will have you feeling confident in completing the distance and preparing for the little elements that make a big difference on race day. The schedule starts with long runs of 16 miles and will slowly build up to 36 miles in length.
• Advanced 100 Miles- If you're looking to challenge yourself for a 100 mile/course PR or are a higher mileage runner, this plan is for you. This plan schedule is intended to prepare you for all things that could happen over 100 miles. The schedule starts with long runs of 18 miles and slowly builds to 40 miles in length. This schedule features back to back hard runs on the weekends to best prepare you for the time on feet.

 

How to Choose a Relay Pirate Plan (12 Weeks):

• Relay Option 1 (Teams of 4-6 Runners): This plan is intended to help you train to complete your mileage feeling good! This shorter plan of 12 weeks will prepare you to run 13-15 miles at a time for your long runs so that you are ready to tackle relay distances for a full or nearly full team.
• Relay Option 2 (Teams of 3-4 Runners): This plan is built for relay teams with fewer runners and therefore more mileage per person. This is also a 12-week plan and will build to long runs of roughly 20-22 miles, allowing a smaller team to complete the distances necessary.
• NOTE: Teams of 2 runners can also select the Beginner 100k Plan for preparation for the relay.
