ULTRA is a list dedicated to the sport of ultrarunning. By "ultrarunning" we mean running of a distance longer than a marathon in distance or time. The list will concentrate on matters related to ultrarunning. However, we recognize that the members of the ultrarunning community cover a wide spectrum. Some are interested solely in training and racing information, techniques and experiences. Others enjoy the more 'peripheral' areas of the sport, from ultra prose or poetry to descriptions of interesting people or scenery seen during a run or race. All those people, and all those ultra topics and many others, are welcome here. The list will NOT be moderated, however flaming, SPAM and advertising (other than race announcements) are not allowed. Archives of the ULTRA list can be found at: http://listserv.dartmouth.edu/Archives/ultra.html If you have other questions, please send e-mail to ultra-request@listserv.dartmouth.edu
