🏃♀️➡️🏃➡️ 5 TIPS FOR WHEN YOU ENTER THE BMH BACKYARD ULTRA 2024 🏃➡️🏃♀️➡️
1. Start conservatively: In a backyard ultra, pacing is key. Begin the race at a comfortable pace, avoiding the temptation to go out too fast. This will help conserve energy for the later stages when fatigue sets in.
2. Embrace the rest hour: Utilise the hour between loops to rest, refuel, and recover. Prioritise sleep, proper nutrition, and hydration during this time to maintain optimal performance throughout the race.
3. Monitor nutrition and hydration: Develop a nutrition and hydration plan tailored to your needs. Experiment with different foods and hydration strategies during training to determine what works best for you. Regularly fuel your body during the race to sustain energy levels and prevent depletion.
4. Stay adaptable: Be prepared to adjust your race plan and adapt to unforeseen circumstances. Weather changes, physical ailments, and mental challenges may arise during the race, so maintain flexibility and make necessary adjustments
