Running: Ultra-Marathons - Do You
Have What It Takes?
Marathons are the "ultimate" goal for many runners.
But there's a core group of runners that believe the marathon isn't long
enough; not enough of a challenge. They feel the need to go longer,
sometimes A LOT LONGER! These are different runners, not your average 10 K
weekend racer. And although they are fiercely competitive, the camaraderie
of ultra-marathoners is legendary. The support for fellow runners during an
ultra extends further than any other running event.
What Is An Ultra Marathon?
A marathon is 26 miles 385 yards long. An ultra-marathon is any event longer. Typically, 30 miles, 50 miles, and 100 miles. There are other distances, but those are the most popular. There are also timed events: 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, and even multi day-races. Some are run on roads, some on trails, and some (mainly timed events) on a track. By Neil L. Cook, BS, MS, Med
