I have never run long distances before. But, I do 3 miles on the treadmill at gym every third day, two 1 hr. long cardio exercise classes per week, and 1 1/2 hours of weightlifting per week. I don't want to be an utltra marathon runner, but I like hiking (I do 5 hour mountain hikes on Mt.Tallac twice each summer) and want to run in the 50K Tahoe Rim Trail Run next year.
What's the minimum I have to bump up my training in order to finish this 50K mountain run within 14 hours????????
