Flat terrain? No problem. Learn how to train for race-day climbs with the tools you already have. Think you can’t train for an ultra with elevation because you live in the city or someplace flat? Think again. 🏙️⛰️ In this episode, I’m breaking down how to prepare for the ups and downs of race day—even if your “hills” look more like parking garage ramps or stairwells. You’ll learn: 👉 Why you must understand your race profile before you train 👉 How to make the most of the hills (or tiny bumps) you do have 👉 Creative ways to build climbing power when you’ve got zero elevation nearby Elevation doesn’t have to be the thing that stops you from running your first (or farthest) ultra. With a little strategy and creativity, you can get the work done no matter where you live. ⭐️ GET THE FREE ULTIMATE 50K TRAINING TOOLKIT 🔥 JOIN THE SHE RUNS ULTRAS COACHING MEMBERSHIP 🛍️ SHOP THE SHE RUNS ULTRAS STORE ➡️ CLICK HERE TO JOIN MY PRIVATE FACEBOOK GROUP 📸 FOLLOW ME ON INSTAGRAM 📝 IF I HELPED YOU RUN YOUR FIRST ULTRA, FILL OUT THIS FORM
