Rory C replied to the topic Ultra Marathons - Should there be categories of Ultra Marathons?
I think there have always been catagories as the distances are mulitples of miles or km and hours and days for the ULTRAracers. The thing now is that so many races are now on trail that there are a multitude of different USPs for races.
