An ultramarathon is any race longer than the 26.2 miles of a standard marathon, and many of them are significantly longer. Even though 85 percent of the runners needed medical care at some point during the race, 95 percent of the problems reported were minor – blisters, swelling, tendonitis or dehydration.

Weekly Mileage Regular weekly tal- lies around 50 miles often lead to strong, comfortable ultra finishes. If you log upward of eight weeks near 70 miles per week, you'll be in top form and, if you've had success at other distances, will likely be competitive at many ultras.
