Description
Melody and Jacob share their experience running the Dugway Trail and Ultra Run on Oct 2. 2021. The main take away from this race: CROSS TRAIN! What Jacob has recently learned: -Do more cross training (he is doing insanity workouts and going to kick boxing classes) -Do speed work (because we've been doing A LOT of long slow runs...So now we are adding in speed work to get faster!) -Do race specific running (Ex. run flat if you’re racing flat, run hills if you’re racing hills!) What Melody has learned recently:-It’s okay and EVEN GOOD to spend time in zone 3 (as long as you aren’t spending ALL of your time here!)-There is no such thing as “running rules” because everyone’s body is different-If you are looking for a coach, find a coach that fits your style of training!-Don’t do more than 1-4 races a year!-Work in mobility work into your training (make sure your mobility work includes mainly strengthening, because that is how you will see permanent range of motion changes. Melody is adding karate into her cross training routine for core strength and hip mobility). Melody’s time: 4:04:47 – 1st place in the womenJacob’s time: 6:34:21 – 6th place in men Best Running Documentary EVER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5EwWYa74__o Learn more about self-defense for runner’s on Melody’s Instagram page: @thepinetreerunner Dugway Trail and Ultra Run: https://ultrasignup.com/register.aspx?did=83850 *Feel free to reach out to us if you have any questions!
