The North Face 50/100

The North Face 50/100 We are taking on 50/100K races through the Blue Mountains in NSW, Australia - updates on Fundraising, Training, Nutrition, Race Plan, Support Crew.

When May 2013 rolls around, we will be running in the North Face 50/100, a fifty and one hundred kilometre race through the blue mountains. The next 6 months will be proving in training and perseverance - most will sweat out 1,600 kilometres before stepping over the start line.

i think i finally get it...

sacrifices

zero alcohol - drag on performance, improves endurance duration and mental readiness

additional sleep - replenish physical energy and improves mental alertness

conditioning

speed intervals - perform at close to maximum heart rate or vo2 max, improves lung capacity and cruising speed

hill/stair intervals - simulate race terrain at intensity with repetitions, fatigue and fail muscles, improves vertical and climbing abilities

body pump - stress test leg muscle groups, improves muscle strength and lactic acid tolerance

swimming - sustained cardio, controlled breathe rate, improves running efficiency and economy

dragon boat - develop core strength and body posture, improves running technique and form

distance running - endurance training on mind and body, improves experience in race conditions and course terrain
