My Bucket List / Fitness Goals
Complete An Ultra Marathon
Ticked off in September 2014
What it is
An ultramarathon is any race longer than a marathon.
How to do it
Start with a 50-kilometre trail race.
Top tip
Train on similar terrain.
My experience
In an official sense, anything over the Marathon distance is classed as an Ultra-Marathon.
In this category a whole new level of crazy actually exists – the longest ultra marathon distance currently stands at a whopping 3100 Miles!!!! The The Sri Chinmoy Self-Transcendence 3100 Mile Race lasts for 52 days with competitors needing to log an AVERAGE of 59.62 miles per day just to complete the event.
