How to Train Smarter for Your Next Ultra with Jacob Puzey

Whether you’re training for you first or 50th Ultra, getting the right tips on how to train smarter and more efficiently from a coach is always helpful. And in this episode, I was joined by one of the best running coaches out there, Jacob Puzey!

Jacob is the Director of Peak Run Performance, which is a coaching company designed to help runners achieve their big goals (without having to do any of the guess work themselves). Jacob is also an accomplished runner himself, finishing in the top 10 of the 2021 Javelina Jundred and winning multiple races in the past. Plus, he’s coached tons of runners to the podium as formerly a collegiate-level Cross Country coach, and now as a running coach to the public.

In this episode, Jacob and I discuss simple tips to make your training way more effective, what you should be aware of if you’re thinking of working with a coach, and how to keep yourself in the game during brutal training blocks.

Also, Jacob’s brother, Tommy Rivs, has been unfortunately and heartbreakingly battling cancer since 2020. If you know Tommy, Jacob, and their family you know that this couldn’t have happened to a more undeserving guy and family. So, we discuss ways you can support #TeamRivs in the beginning of the podcast as well.

Special thanks and much love to Jacob for this special episode!
