An introduction to Ultrarunning
An upcoming workshop event for the curious.
What is Ultra Running?
Ultraruns or ultramarathons are running events on a course that is longer than the 42.195k or 26.2 miles, a marathon distance. In general, you can say this: Anything longer than the traditional marathon is an ultra.
For many people, the attraction of ultra running is more a question of the running experience than simply the distance covered. For this reason, most races longer than the marathon distance take place on marked off-road trails and require special training, both physical and mental.
​
