    Excellent video Josh! I was able to get a really good idea of the course from this and have put Ventura on my very short list of potential fulls to run in 2025.

      Glad to hear it was helpful. This is a great course for someone trying to PR. It is one of the top BQ races. Good luck witb your races and training

    love it! you actually do a great service by posting this because other runners get to see the course and decide if it's the right race for them. Do you think is a good race to try a sub 3hrs? and I don't see that many hydration stations, did you felt at any time that you needed more? Thanks!!

      This course had to be modified from previous versions due to issues with permits and road closures. Hopefully the 2023 version will be the same as the pre-covid route that ends near the mission in Ventura. This course was my current PR (2:55:42) when I was finishing before around the 3:02 time on other courses. I believe the pre-covid route is the fastest marathon course in the area.

      There are plenty of water stations during the race, I just didn't record all of them in the video due to limited storage and battery in my camera. Hope you come run this. It is a great event

    Great video. Will be trying out this exact pace in two weeks at the Ventura Marathon. Trying to BQ for the first time. Any tips?

      The course starts off fairly flat with a slight incline on parts of the loop before you start the bike path. There is a nice gradual downhill after about mile 11 that will let you catch up or even bank a little time. It flattens out in the last 6 miles and when you are sore and tired, it tends to feel like a slight uphill. Try to save a little for this last part. I find that I run better when running by effort and not strictly by pace. If you want to run an 8 minute mile average, let your pace slow on the uphills to like 8:10 or 8:15 and then make it up on the gentle downills by running loke 7:45. You tend to not burn out as easily this way and doesn't cause such a large build up of lactic acid in the muscles. I will be pacing the 3:30 group this year, so come say hi!

      You can pay extra for them to have it at the start line. I believe when you register, there is an option for it. I believe it is $20 extra. I am local for this marathon and just picked it up on Saturday instead

    What was your peak mileage per week and longest run in the weeks leading up to this? Thx

    • @JoshuaASharp
      @JoshuaASharp  Год назад +1

      I do a variety of training. I am mostly interested in ultra training. I honestly don't remember my mileage, but often times I average around 50 miles a week with my longest runs specially for marathon training being around 20 miles close to race pace the whole time.
      For ultras, I usually run back to back days. Often I will do a slow 30 mile run, followed with a 20 miler again slow. Those weeks are more like 70-80 miles weeks. Sometimes I will alternate a bike ride in place of the run during the middle of the week.
