Frequently Asked Questions

How do I find ultramarathons near me?
Use the location search on this page. RACE shows 50Ks, 50-milers, 100Ks, 100-milers, and timed ultras within your selected radius, sorted by distance from you.
What is the shortest ultramarathon distance?
A 50K (31.1 miles) is the most common entry-level ultra distance. It is only 5 miles longer than a marathon. Many runners transition from marathon to 50K with minimal additional training.
How do I train for my first ultramarathon?
Most 50K training plans are 16-20 weeks and build your weekly long run to 22-26 miles. Back-to-back long runs on weekends (e.g., 18 miles Saturday + 12 miles Sunday) build the fatigue resistance ultras demand.
Do I need to run the entire ultramarathon?
No. Walking is expected and strategic in ultras, especially on hills and at aid stations. Most 100-mile finishers walk 40-50% of the course. Run the flats, power-hike the climbs, and eat consistently.
