How does one train for an ultra?

I haven't lost my mind, I promise, I'm just curious. But how does one train for an ultra? For example, and my reason for thinking about it, the Sunmart 50k and 50miler are coming up here in December. They are very popular, particularly the 50K. I always hear people raving about it because its...

I just received my first ever comp for a race!

comp for a race! What were these people thinking? I have NO idea. But, for one whole morning, I can say that I get to race for free. Which means I also get to keep an extra $20! :P Let's hope they don't find out I suck between now and race time.

What's the strangest thing you've found while running ?

Answered by a doctor

It seem appropriate for my first posting here the word "strange" would be in the title. Anyway... What is the strangest thing you have found while running ? Some of my running friends have found good CDs, wrenches and other tools. For my part, the strangest thing I found was a latex (you...

What time of the day do you like to run?

What time of day do you LIKE to run??? I didn't say the time run, but like to run? I'm more nocturmal and always have been. I'd rather set out at 10pm than 6am when I run. However, it never feels quite as safe to be outdoors when I do that. Most of my runs start around 7pm or so. Just...
