Think you can't run a 100 mile ultra? Well the truth is....you absolutely can! Especially if you read this awesome new book by Jen Benson. This lunch we had such a lovely chat to Jen about 'The Path We Run', which charts the ups and downs of her 100 mile journey, with advice and inspiration along the way from ultra running greats and experts like Courtney Dauwalter, Jasmin Paris, Beth Pascall, Lucy Bartholemew and more.
It's a great read, wonderfully written with some fascinating insights. For example, did you know, Courtney DNFed her first 100 miler? There are lots of great tips and bits of advice in our chat, but even more in the book, so pop it on your Christmas list NOW! Thanks for the lovely chat again Jen, it's always really great to connect with you...and maybe I'll do a 100 miler one day.......
