Ultra Running VLOG - Running Cocodona 250 (Episode 4)

Curious about how to train and run an ultra marathon? Welcome to my ultra running training VLOG - episode 4. This series follow me - Simon - as I race 100 miles ultra marathon every month. This week is the big week - running Cocodona 250 miles in Arizona! If you feel my content as helped you along in your journey, I'd greatly appreciate your support.

Check out this link https://linktr.ee/runningwithsimon After months of training and months of preparation, I'm finally racing my big race - Cocodona 250. This will be my first 200+ miles ultra marathon, and it's a beast! 250 miles across all various climates of Arizona, from desert to 9000 ft Mountains with thin air. This was a particularly difficult challenge, especially given that I had only 1 week of rest since my last 100 miles race (Mt Fuji 100) and was racing solo - no crew and no pacer. But despite the ups and downs, I found ways to keep going. I'll be posting a full movie / ultra running documentary in a few weeks, but this is a preview of what happened, and what I learned. As always - Thanks for watching and remember - Work Hard! Believe in yourself! Push your limits! Simon ----------------------------------------------- Curious about trail running gear?
