Less support, in the middle of no where, no big crowds or First Aid tents galore. If we have to stop, barring a bone fracture, did you ever ponder how those folks get back when there is no road access, only a bumpy 1 track trail on the side of a cliff ? Either way, finishing or not, have to walk your butt back to the finish or start, might as well push through miserably and finish.

Hey Warren, that’s really neat to hear. I used to think the same thing about 26 miles being the most humans ran. Funny how relatively unknown the sport of ultrarunning still is.
There are far more impressive examples of vegetarian runners than myself though! Scott Jurek, a vegan, just broke the American record for miles run in 24 hours. 140 or 150 or something insane like that.
