It says she runs 35 miles a week. That's five miles a day. That is nothing for someone who supposedly trains for ultras. That's not even what people run every morning for other sports.

I bet her "running" is more "counting steps on her phone", if even that, but I doubt it is.
I do that doing that 10K steps a day thing to hatch pokemon and shit. Then I go to the gym and jog a couple times a week, but then again, I'm not even close to fit.

I only ran about 40 miles a week this year preparing for my ultras. That number is probably ok. I mean, I'm not elite, I'm just a normal guy that does them. I think I got 8th in my age group at the one in August. At a 5K I can get first in age group and 2nd or 3rd overall at age 40 so that's where my strength is right now. Maybe I can move up in the ultras if I start running 200 miles a month. Not sure, I do have a job and a life and no sponsors, so 40 miles a week is about all I can swing.
