Do 33 mile trail races count towards the 100 club paul? I've been telling myself this was my first marathon, but I suppose you're right, I'm up to 2 without thinking about it!

Easy isn’t it Fenners
Larkim - LDWA style events normally count, can’t see the one you did on the list but that is probably perhaps no one has asked for it to be listed. From a quick glance it appears to meet all the criteria. There are some purists in the 💯 Club that only count marathons (nothing longer) but they tend to be older members. It is up to you but in my book anything 26.2 or longer is fair game.

12/5/2018 - Sandstone Challenge (33 miles) is listed on the website, so I guess it counts!

PtB wouldn't forget his garmin though
Larkim, that's your first raced marathon. There is more there just with another marathon cycle. Free time really.
21 marathons for me and never a step further and no intention to step up.

HappyG, I've still not completed one hundred 26.2 marathons. My total of 120 includes, four Stour Valley Marathons (which could be included in either Marathon or Ultra category as it is 27 miles), ten 50-ish milers, and other ultra-marathon distances. So my 26.2 mile count is 93, or 97 if you count the Stour Valley's.

Baz, you have, IMHO, the best Ultra-marathon nearly on your doorstep. The Highland Fling is possibly the best race I've ever taken part in.

Do multi marathoners count those that are subsequently found to be short ?
FR, I am not sure I would know how to approach something like the fling that is off road, longer and hillier - hence why for now I have no ambitions to do so. Comrades does appeal though

Baz, I think the ruling is that they only DON'T count if they are knowingly short before the race. So if you ran Manchester on the belief it was 26.2 it would still count.
