‘Tapering to your first Ultra’ is an important time in your training, almost as important as your race. For the beginners in the audience, we discuss what a taper is, and for the seasoned ultrarunners we cover tips and tricks for relieving those anxiety-driven taper-tantrums that occur when our running endorphins and serotonin aren’t released as usual. Looking for some ways to be more efficient in packing and planning for race day? We’ve got you covered in this insider's look at the weeks prior to that big race day.
