Omgosh, it's true, ultras are more miles than marathons
ultras: 454 marathons: 340
But if I do "up to" then
Up to 10K: 383 Over 10K up to half marathon: 518 Over half up to marathon: 434
So actually half marathon is probably my most common distance. Interesting (to me! ) G

I have done roughly the same number of 10ks, HMs and marathons 21/23/21 and never a step further than the finish line of a marathon.

Has anyone considered the Edinburgh 24 (with 6 and 12 hour and team options)?
Mid July, c5k loops of Arthurs seat, as many as you can do in the timespan you enter for.
For some bizarre reason this doesn't seem to be a silly idea. I mean I can run loops of arthurs seat no bother. I think I even did 2 laps once. How much harder can it be to keep going round for 6/12/24 hours !

Aye, and you can have a nice sit doon and a picnic as well, Bazoaxe. Go for it!
In fact, if you go for the 24, you can take a tent and have a kip during the race :-).

I am confident of only doing one marathon AND I am very confident I won't do an Ultra.

Yeah but you are awesome and Shondo would most likely kill me if those words were ever uttered from my lips again
