Training for a 100-mile ultramarathon isn’t just about piling on the miles — it’s about building the right foundation that makes your body, mind, and strategy bulletproof on race day.In this episode, Joe breaks down the exact framework he used while preparing for the Kodiak 100, explaining how to identify your biggest limiter and structure training around what really matters. Whether you’re chasing your first buckle or aiming for a PR, you’ll learn how to craft a plan that fits your life, maximizes your strengths, and eliminates the mistakes that sabotage most runners.What you'll learn:The 4 key training pillars that determine success in every 100-miler—and how to know which one you need to prioritize.How to personalize your plan based on your background, schedule, and experience level (instead of blindly copying others).Why most runners overtrain in one area and completely miss the real limiter holding them back.The simple diagnostic test Joe uses to decide if you’re fitness-limited, durability-limited, or mindset-limited.How to build an unbreakable engine that lasts through the final miles, even when your legs want to quit.A major training mistake that quietly sabotages endurance progress—and how to fix it immediately.The hidden link between strength training and race-day performance that most ultrarunners overlook.How to build mental resilience for when everything starts to unravel at mile 70 (and what separates those who finish strong from those who fade).Joe’s personal insights from racing 200-milers and coaching hundreds of ultrarunners—and how those lessons shaped his approach for Kodiak.Thank you for listening!SHOW NOTES:Register for our race, The Desert Peak Ultra 100K + 50K at desertpeakultra.comWant to work with me to crush your next ultramarathon in our group coaching program?
