[QUOTE="Jones, post: 775016, member: 4805"] That makes sense for a fast guy like you. A criticism that you sometimes hear leveled at the top ultra runners is that they got into into trail/ultra running because they didn't have the raw speed to be competitive on the roads. I think that's an unfair generalization but there probably is a little bit of truth to it. A 2:35 marathon won't get you anything at New York or Chicago, but combine it with some trail running skill and an an aptitude for longer distances and you'll be in the mix at Western States or the JFK50.
