The Pre-Race Checklist to Crush Your Ultramarathon

You’ve put in the miles, nailed your training, and visualized the finish line—but one missed detail can still derail your entire ultra. In this episode, Joe breaks down the six essential steps every runner needs to dial in before race day. Whether you’re running a 50K or a 200 miler, this checklist will help you avoid common mistakes and show up fully prepared.

Here’s a taste of what you’ll learn:

How to build a realistic pace plan (and why it’s the foundation of everything else).
The exact gear strategy Joe uses for 100-milers (including must-haves most runners overlook).
A proven system to plan your nutrition and hydration hour by hour so you never bonk.
Smart drop bag and crew tactics that keep you moving instead of scrambling.
Pro tips for avoiding DNFs and making race day as smooth as possible.

If you’ve ever worried about forgetting something before your big race, this episode will be your go-to guide.
