50-Mile Easy Plan - 20 Weeks: This is intended for someone training to complete their first 50-miler. Due to the added length of the 50-mile distance, it is recommended that runners have completed a marathon previously before tackling this plan. In the absence of a marathon, runners should be comfortable with runs of 18-20 miles before tackling this plan. Long runs will begin around 15 miles and build to 30 miles in a single session There will be a number of weeks that will feature 2 longer runs on back-to-back days. This plan will recommend 5 days of running per week (with the option for added mileage).

50k Advanced Plan - 20 Weeks: This is intended for someone experienced at ultramarathons who has a goal of training for a personal best (for the course or distance). Long runs will begin around 20 miles and build to 31-32 miles in a single session. There will be a number of weeks that will feature 2 longer runs on back-to-back days as well as medium-long runs in the middle of most weeks. Based on the course profile, emphasis will be placed on building speed on flatter terrain and the ability to handle longer climbs and descents. This plan will recommend 6-7 days of running per week.
