He also dives deep into fueling strategies, hydration, and gear essentials, revealing what works (and what doesn’t) for long days on rugged terrain. Whether you're contemplating your first 50K or wanted to get more in shape for hunting season, Weston’s straightforward advice will leave you motivated to start training smarter, longer, and with purpose.
