UTA Miler Training Plan

Turn Up to your UTA miler prepared
The Ultra Trail Australia is one of the largest trail events in the world! The scenery, trails and atmosphere are simple incredible. Training for an event like the UTA can be challenging and exciting.
To help you train smart all the way to race day, we have developed a specific UTA 100 mile training plan.
Runners often enter the UTA, get over-excited, train too hard, get injured or peak too early. To avoid over doing it … or under doing it, the best way to approach your training is with a specific plan that carefully guides your increase in volume, elevation and intensity.
This plan has been specifically designed to help you achieve your UTA 2025 personal best.

Frequently asked questions
Is this program suitable for a beginner?
This training plan is for the UTA 100 mile event. It is suitable for someone who has been training consistently for at least 2 years and is able to comfortably run 20km – 25km regularly on hilly trails without injuries. If you can not, or have not, consistently included a 20 – 25km “long run” in your training program, you should consider training for a shorter event.
Can you help me train when I'm injured?
Probably, depending on your injury. We are very sorry to hear you are injured. We know how difficult that can be. If you have an injury that requires some rest from running, there are almost always some cross-training options available to help you maintain your fitness, strength, and sanity. By cross-training while you are injured, and including some simple strength, stretching and foam rolling routines, you will speed up your recovery time and ultimately make your return to running easier and more successful. You can start our free 4 week cross training plan now for FREE. It will help you to identify appropriate exercises based on your injury type and recommend what cross training methods will work best for your injury. When you are ready you can start our 10-week return to running program (url) or one of our run-specific rehab plans.
Can I start this program late?
You get immediate access to your training plan when you join. You can view the current week plus any previous weeks if you are training for a specific event. We recommend that you start with a weekly volume that your body is currently able to cope with, which might mean starting on the beginner level before moving to intermediate a few weeks later.
