“I used the pre-built P3 running 50K plan via Training Peaks to train for my first 50K ultra. I found it to be well-structured and organized. Preparation for my race with the running plan undoubtedly helped me to cross the finish line injury-free. The hill and tempo blocks were challenging, but increased my speed and allowed me to tackle hills I never thought possible!! It was easy to make changes to the schedule within the program, and Michele was extremely helpful in facilitating adjustments to best fit my schedule. I would recommend the P3Running 50K plan via Training Peaks and will be using it again to achieve my best!”
