006. Moisés Jimenez | How to run a 50 miler and learning to restructure your goals

Moisés Jimenez is an ultra runner for The North Face and the founder of Vert.run.

Moi was born in Venezuela, but he grew up in the Chilean Patagonia, an incredibly wild and unspoilt territory which inspired his passion for trail running. He currently lives in Annecy, France, with his wife Kirsten Kortebein, where you can find them enjoying any kind of outdoor activity in the alpine playground or a cup of coffee on the lake.

In 2021, Moi decided to focus his training on UTMB, the incredible 170km - 10000m loop around Mont Blanc. After dropping out in the latest stage of the race, he picked himself up and decided that he was not done for the year. He dedicated some time to recovery and, in the meanwhile, he got married. Eventually, Moi went on to take a wonderful third place at Maxi Race 50 mile, his final race of the 2021 season and also his home race in Annecy.

In this episode we learn from him how he planned his training for UTMB and Maxi Race, and how he handled the effort, the nutrition and the mental strategy for his 50 miler.
