Running 44@60 - tips, ideas and advice for your first ultra marathon or marathon
If you are thinking about a first ultra marathon or marathon this is the podcast for you.

The run was completed and the podcast has evolved and features runners and running specialists offering tips and advice from training to nutrition via race planning, kit, etc…
Most episodes are around 25 minutes of fast paced, energising and inspiring tips, advice and ideas.

Running 44@60 - tips, ideas and advice for your first ultra marathon or marathon
Lighthouse Marathon - a first ever DNF!
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of the Running 44@60 podcast I’m sharing my experience of running the first ever Lighthouse Marathon.
Pendeen to Godrevy on the North Cornwall Coast with a bit on at the start and finish to make it the full marathon distance.
For me it was an ARC 50 test. With 3 months to go where am I fitness wise was the key question to be answered.
Sadly a recent achilles injury I had recovered from re-occured when I slipped / stumbled at 7 miles.
I hobbled on to the 14 mile aid station at St Ives where I had already decided enough was enough. My first ever DNF (Did Not Finish)
It also means my Arc adventure for January 2024 is over. I’ve deferred to January 2025.
I mention the Ford Sen Mighal - its a great Bys Vyken event on December 2nd - North Cornwall Coast (Lelant) to South Cornwall Coast (Marazion)
