Ben’s Ultramarathon success
This year, my client Ben achieved a remarkable goal: completing not one but two ultramarathons, along with a trail marathon and several fell races. Over the past year Ben has worked hard on his strength training which has helped enhance his performance.
Why strength training is a game-changer for runners
Strength training provides runners with power, stability, and resilience, helping to improve speed, prevent injuries, and enhance endurance. For Ben, focusing on key areas like core, glutes, and legs enabled him to handle the unique demands of trail and ultra running.
A testimonial from Ben:
”Pip's strength and conditioning coaching has really helped my running performance reach the next level over the past year. I have completed two ultramarathons, a trail marathon, and numerous fell races, and Pip has tailored my S&C training for each race to help me achieve my targets. I can't recommend her enough!”
Key Takeaways
Ben’s journey shows that a well-rounded approach—including strength training alongside endurance work—can help runners reach new heights. Congratulations, Ben!
Ben has now booked onto more ultra races next year and I can’t wait to see how he progresses in his running!
