This is the premiere episode of my ultra marathon training for the Beyond Limits Ultra in Mountain Center, CA on April 4-7, 2019. Over the next 26 weeks leading up to the race and during the race I will video my training life to try to show what it takes to make it to the starting line of an ultra marathon and hopefully complete 100 mile in less than 36 hours.

The balancing act between training, health and family life continues as Chris trains for his first 100-mile ultramarathon in episode 5 of the 26 Miles.

26 Weeks – Episode 7
It’s Thanksgiving week in the US this episode, which means there is a ton of food everywhere you look. Only saving grace is we are training for an ultramarathon so we are burning a ton of calories. This week Chris hits his longest run with a one-way trip to the beach but hits a speed bump along the way. The quick mileage increase over the last seven weeks may have finally caught up to him.
