Ready to take your running beyond the marathon and into the world of trail ultras?
In this episode of the Running for Beginners Podcast, I sit down with Laura Saponar, ultra running coach and founder of OwnYourEndurance.com, to break down what it really takes to train for and complete trail ultramarathons—from your first 50K all the way up to 100-mile races.
Laura brings a powerful combination of real-world experience and professional coaching expertise, with a resume that includes the Boston Marathon, multiple NYC and Marine Corps Marathons, 50Ks, 50-milers, 100Ks, and 100-mile races like Javelina and Oregon Cascades. She’s also a UESCA Certified Ultra Running Coach, Precision Nutrition Level 1 Coach, and TrainingPeaks Level 1 certified coach, giving her a well-rounded approach to endurance performance.
