I've just signed up for a 51k ultra over the Brecon Beacons in August.

I've not ran more than 20k in one run before.

I do have 219 days to get ready!

Nice! The distance is fine but the elevation will be absolutely brutal. Make sure you do lots of hill work and lower body strength stuff (kettle bell squats/swings etc)

Josh in reply to @Well_is_it

I have been looking for some routes with decent elevation where I live and can't find much, so I think hill reps will be a must.

I do 2 strength and conditioning sessions per week as it stands. I will be focusing on the core, hips and legs more so now!
