#9: The Hotseat... A Fresh Perspective on Ultramarathon DNFs, and we talk about 10km pacing!

Send us a text

Ever faced a DNF in an ultramarathon? You know the sinking feeling, the disappointment, the sense of failure? Well, we're here to tell you it's not! Join us as we reveal how DNFs, far from being career-enders, are often stepping stones on the road to success. We'll share our personal tales of DNFs - from poor shoe choices to unanticipated terrain - and how these experiences have shaped us as runners. Particularly, we'll reflect on Nick's recent 'Did Not Finish' and how it was just a stepping stone that led him to a victory just a month later.
Switching tracks, have you ever wondered how to tackle a 10K race efficiently?
Our discussion takes you through how to handle the first mile, to check your form at the halfway mark, and conserve energy for a solid finish. Remember, it's not just about how you start, but also how you finish. So, lace up your running shoes, and let's explore the exciting world of ultramarathons and 10K races together!
