Becoming an Ultramarathoner: 50k Training 

You've read about ultramarathoning, you've heard the stories about ultramarathoning, perhaps you or some of your friends have given it a try with varying degrees of success.  Well now it's time to learn how to succesfully complete an ultramarathon:  a 50k.

Endurance Planet invites you to join host Kevin Patrick and endurance coach Karl Keltner for an informative and interactive hour-long workshop entitled:  Training for Your First 50k. 

 "Koach Karl" of Athlon Endurance Training is a two-time Badwater Ultramarathon finisher, 15-year veteran of endurance coaching, and charity warrior (he has succesfully coached hundreds of athletes to their first marathon or ultramarathon for groups like Runners in Touch and Team in Training.) During this workshop you'll learn:

• How to build your mileage to handle the demands of race day
• How to train for varying terrain
• Effective recovery techniques
• Proper nutrition--before, during, and after your event
• Correct gear for training and racing
• Ultramarathon pacing strategies

Following the presentation, you'll be able to take part in a Q&A period.  And at the end of the workshop we'll provide you with a downloadable 50k training plan. 

The cost of this workshop is 29.95.  The first ten registrants receive a free training DVD of their choice from the Endurance Planet library of titles including Spinvervals, Runervals, and Flexible Warrior yoga.

Join us for this valuable workshop aimed at making you an ultramarathoner.
