If you can't run fast, then run far.
why are you responding to a troll? and not even a good one. there are dean k threads already.
on letterman, he claimed he can run 2:30 in the marathon. I am calling BS on that... ultra marathoners arnt considered runners. thats why they have their own usatf classification.
It is sad that people like you, that know nothing about running and then make statements that make you sound like a total idiot.
Ultramarathon running is running:
World best for 50 miles - 4:50:51 (5:49/mile pace)
World best for 100 kilometers - 6:10:20 (5:57/mile pace)
World best for 100 miles - 11:30.51 (6:55/mile pace)
Yes, the world best ultrarunners are great runners.
However, just like marathoning, they good one's are few and far between. The majority of ultrarunners I know, struggle to run 3:30 for the marathon.
And believe it or not, being a 2:40-2:45 marathoner will be good enough to win most local level 50 and 100 milers.
A 2:40 - 2:45 marathon would win most local marathons. ;-)
