Ultra Tip Tuesday #1: How to Layer Like an Ultra Runner
Description
Welcome to our very first Ultra Tip Tuesday! In this short, practical episode, Max shares how to master layering so you stay warm, dry, and strong on the trails.
We’ll break down the three-layer system:
🧥 Base layer – sweat manager🧣 Mid layer – insulation🌧️ Shell – outer defense
You’ll learn about hydrostatic head, why breathability matters as much as waterproofing, and the common mistake most runners make at the start line.
👉 Key takeaway: Start cool, go windproof when it’s dry, save the waterproofs for biblical weather.
👉 Join our Trails, Tales, and Fails Facebook Community to continue the conversation and connect with fellow trail and ultra runners.💚 If you enjoy the podcast and want to support what we do, check out our Patreon — every bit helps us keep sharing stories from the trails.
