I'm a 34 year old guy who started running last August. Prior to this I had no running experience. I ran a half marathon (1 hour 55 min) in October of 2023. I ran the LA Marathon on March 17, 2024 (4 hours 30 minutes). I ran another marathon, on my own, a few weeks later at the same pace and I just finished my first Ultra on Sunday (May 6th, 2024) (50k) (5 hours and 30 minutes). I just signed up for my second 50k for June 1, 2024.

I think I have a body made to run. I have recovered almost fully from all of these races within a day or two and I feel really good about going from couch to 50k in about 9 months time. I'm wondering your thoughts on someone putting 100% into their training and reaching that ~100 mile race goal by next August.
