	Ultramarathon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Many ultrarunning events, especially trail challenges, are characterized by severe course obstacles, such as inclement weather, elevation change, or rugged terrain.
		Ultrarunning has become quite poular in Asia recently, and countries such as Taiwan, Japan, and Korea have hosted IAU World Championships in the last few years.
		Ultrarunning is also quite popular in Europe, where over 200 ultramarathons are held each year, among the biggest the 100k of Bienne and the 72.7k Rennsteiglauf in the Thuringian Forest.

	Ultrarunning: Experiences From 100-mile Trail Races - Swedish MC, Seattle, Washington, WA
		Ultrarunning is loosely defined as anything longer than a marathon (26.2 miles).
		But ultraruns are commonly 50- or 100-mile races, and are often run on trails and in mountainous terrain.
		Most average runners can meet the hundred mile challenge, given a determined commitment to develop an adequate ultrarunning base, a willingness to maintain a positive attitude during training and competition, and the tenacity to endure the inevitable bad patches that always arise during a race.

	Childbirth Envy: Why Men Run Ultras (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		In the sport of ultrarunning (participation in foot races of distances longer than the standard 26 mile marathon) the great majority of participants are male.
		The ultrarunning phenomena of "fading memory" wherein runners swear at the completion of an ultra never to do it again, and then sign up for another a few days later, has a strong parallel in the rapid fading of the memory of pain in childbirth.
		This theory is shown to be consistent with observations about the relative participation of women in ultras, the selective memory of painful events common to ultrarunning and childbirth, the apparent correlation between the declining birthrate and increasing participation in ultrarunning, and the value of wives and mothers as ultra crew.

	Ultrarunning and the Christian life
		Why is ultrarunning (running distances longer than a marathon) the perfect hobby for a Christian?
		Ultrarunning gives a person lots of practice in keeping on keeping on- through the pain, past the times of wanting to quit, hour after hard lonely hour.
		It teaches you that if you have a goal you can learn how not to be a slave to whatever you happen to feel like doing at the moment.
