The full distance. This plan builds the durability, fuelling, and mental prep to take on 100 miles — including running through a full night, without needing a marathon or a running club behind you.
I ran my first ultra, 32 miles across the Seven Sisters — with zero road racing background. No marathon PB, no club vest, no idea what I was doing. Just a plan built around effort, not ego. This is that same philosophy, taken to its furthest point.
22 weeks. 5–6 runs a week. Built for people who run before or after work, not people training full-time.
What's included:
Full 22-week First 100 Mile training plan (PDF + downloadable schedule)
Every session written to an RPE effort target, not a fixed pace
Extended back-to-back long runs, including monthly consecutive-day training to build cumulative fatigue resistance
Overnight training runs — genuine preparation for running through darkness
Full fuelling protocol: solid food, caffeine strategy, stomach-training for ultra-distance eating
Crew, pacer, and drop-bag planning worksheets
Mental strategy notes for the low points every 100-miler brings
Written by a UESCA-certified ultra running coach
Who it's for: Runners who've completed a 100K or 50 mile and are ready for the full distance, without needing 1:1 coaching. If you want a plan that takes the logistics — crew, pacers, night running, fuelling — as seriously as the mileage, this is built for you.
Effort > Pace. Every session.
