416 Holly Worton ~ Lessons Learned From My First Ultra

<p>I'm back again, with another solo episode! Last weekend, I ran my very first ultramarathon: the Serpent Trail 100 km race. It was a fantastic event, and it was a truly joyful day: a great stretch outside of my comfort zone.</p> <p>Whether or not you're a runner, you'll find this episode to be useful: it will give you an idea of how to plan a much bigger adventure, in terms of both physical and mental preparation. There are lots of little details in the planning, and I got most of them right.</p> <p>I hope this episode inspires you to try new adventures!</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Listen To This Episode</span></strong></p> <p><a href= "https://itunes.apple.com/podcast/ready-to-bloom-podcast-business/id685978804?mt=2"> <img class="alignnone wp-image-14801" src= "http://www.hollyworton.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/itunes.png" alt="" width="170" height="62" /></a> <a href= "https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/business-mindset-podcast-holly-worton-business-marketing/id685978804?mt=2"><img class="alignnone wp-image-14800" src= "http://www.hollyworton.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/apple-podcast.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="63" /></a><a href= "http://app.stitcher.com/browse/feed/37814/details"> </a><a href="http://app.stitcher.com/browse/feed/37814/details"><img class="alignnone wp-image-14802" src= "http://www.hollyworton.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/stitcher-button.png" alt="" width="172" height="63" /></a> <a href= "https://open.spotify.com/show/6yivALm9RBb4yn3qGl2x54?si=IRvv6Ma7TVCOC-MqPDwU8A"> <img class="alignnone wp-image-16128" src= "http://www.hollyworton.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/spotify.png" alt="" width="177" height="62" /></a><a href= "http://sociallyholistic.libsyn.com/spotify"> </a></p> <p> </p> <p><strong>What You'll Learn</strong></p> <ul> <li>Why you might want to run an ultramarathon</li> <li>My journey to an ultramarathon</li> <li>Things I did right in my training and preparation</li> <li>Nutrition on the trail: hits and misses</li> <li>Thin
