Flex Runners Coaching

On Saturday, I attempted a 50 mile race for the first time. I didn't finish along with 30 other runners. Going from 50 degree temperature to 80s temp was a shock to my system. 84 degrees with not much shade and crazy hilly for a lot of the course. I now know that Eastern Washington has really extreme weather. Before we reached hot Winthrop, we were passing snow on the side of the street. I did manage to run my farthest run of 35 miles (Some called it quits earlier, 35% dnf) and the most hilly course I've ever ran. Before stopping, I had already tackeled the biggest ascensions. The downhill running portion was punishing once I had more hills to climb. Learning from the ultrarunners on the course. When it is hot run with little shade. I will need to actually wear a shortsleeve tech shirt and a cap that protect my ears and neck, monitor my hydration better and don't be afraid to dump cold water on my head and shoulders. Also, although the cut off time was 18 hours. I had an even shorter time limit of less than 11 hours because my crew was trying to rush home due to it being
Mother's day weekend and the drive home was about 5 hours long. In the future, I will attempt this race again, but I will make sure that I have a crew that can stay 2 nights.
I'm still very appreciative of the crew support I had. They were very patient and gave me great company.

With my own training. I ran 50 miles in 2 days. I'm recovering faster after marathons and technical races. 8:32 duration for 50 miles. With 9600 ft gain at my mountain 50 miler. I will see how I do on my debut 50 in less than a month. Taper starting now.

Today on my 28 miler journey, I wanted to see if I could start on rolling hills and finish with rolling hills. I did it!! Juggling full time work and 50 miler training. This coach is not only self motivated but my local and online clients are seeing results too. My local run client just got awarded 3rd place Female on her trail half. You should try out my coaching service today. Message me.

Still sick going on 2 weeks now. At Deception pass trails which was 4300 ft gain. I told myself during the trail marathon race. "Just do a training run since you have to blow your nose and cough through out the race". I didn't know my result until today. I still managed 5th female overall and 1st in my division. Pretty technical, it is good prep for my 50 miler. 3 miles today on first day back to running.

Cross country course with part trail and flat paved course. Last race I was healing my knee wound from falling. Today, I conquered the course 1st place master female. 3rd F overall. I still have speed in these legs even though I'm ultramarathon training. 👟⚡️ Lyra is becoming consistent runner too, sub 8 pace. Lyra: You're fast mom!🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🥳

My right knee wound from tripping on pave- ment felt all the way healed since yesterday. Feeling better each day. I was ready to reintegrate speed back into my run schedule. During my work break I did 15 minute abs to de-stress. My co-worker who has known me since I was a little kid said to me "you always eat so healthy". I try. Work/run/grocery shopping. 8 miles in 1:04. What a difference it makes when you're healed.

When you become one of clients, I provide a program that fits with your training needs. Some runners want to run nearly daily, and others can only fit in 3-4 days for running. I will make it all work for you! This is a sample of one of the plans. With personal coaching I follow up with you on a regular basis.

6 miler in less than an hour. In 2022, I told myself that in 2023, I'm going to train for my first 50 miler race. I decided on Sun Mountain 50 with 8000 ft gain. I know I'll be packing my noxgear light. The new lamp attachment allows for hands-free pathing lighting. Do you need accountability to train through the winter? This coach can help you.
