SALOMON PHANTASM 24 | Mixed relay team 24‑hour distance record attempt | Run4Adventure - Run4Adventure

Intro: This is a quick summary of SALOMON PHANTASM 24 | Mixed relay team 24‑hour distance record attempt from Run4Adventure. It’s a great watch — we’re breaking it down so you can try the workout today. Be sure to check out the full video for all the details.

Key Points:

• Four athletes (Ricky Lightfoot, Ali Lavender, Matt Rees, Abi Woolaston) ran in a 24‑hour mixed relay on a 400 m track.
• Each runner completed six 1‑hour segments, with a 3‑hour recovery break between segments.
• The team aimed to stay steady, practice fueling during short breaks, and let the body’s feel‑rate dictate the pace rather than forcing a specific speed.
• Mental resilience and team camaraderie were highlighted as critical for night‑time and sleep‑deprivation challenges.

Workout Example:

1. Warm‑up 10 min easy jog.
2. Run 1 hour at a sustainable effort (e.g., ~17 km in the hour, roughly 10 min / km).
3. Recover 3 hours – focus on nutrition (quick carbs + protein) and short rest.
4. Repeat steps 2‑3 five more times (total 6 hours of running, 15 hours of recovery).
5. After each hour, refuel immediately (e.g., a gel + a small sandwich) to avoid appetite‑lull issues.

Practical Tips:

• Practice double‑runs with a 3‑hour gap to train your body to recover quickly.
• Keep hydration and easy‑to‑eat carbs on hand for the post‑hour refuel.
• Let your perceived effort guide the pace; if you feel strong, hold the pace, if fatigue hits, back off slightly to protect form.
• Use the team’s energy – a quick chat or high‑five during hand‑offs can boost morale.
