Ep 80: Ultra Distance Preparation - PART 1 - Embracing the Unknown with Acier & Peak Bike Fitting

This week we are bringing you a 1st part of an 2 part discussion with Sam from Acier.cc and Lee from Peak Bike Fitting, all about how to prepare for an ultra distance event.

Our discussion itself went a bit ultra distance, so we decided to split it into two parts -

The first dives into preparing your mindset tool kit. Understanding your real motivations to aid decision making and why the ultra distance community is so special.

Part 2 two, released next week, will bring more practical advice around bike fit setup, ride snacks and how to training your fueling.

So if you've signed up to a Ultra event or you're keen to figure out if this is for you, listen on for some invaluable insights from 2 specialists in all things ultra distance.
