heywoodu 13,562 Posted February 16, 2019 #4 Share Posted February 16, 2019 What's up with this ultra marathon thing? I just see 15km? If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

I don't know why those Argentinian races were held "only" over 15k... in the past, they were 3, if not 4, times the distance (of course following the rivers' stream, but still)... hopefully the next races will be over real marathon distance (if confirmed in the schedule, for sure Capri-Napoli can't be that short even if they want )...

Thanks, so ultra-marathon is indeed longer than the usual open water competitions and this is just a weird outlier?

Now it makes a lot more sense yes, sir... p.s. and the participants to this kind of competitions are nicely named "caymans"...
