QUESTION:
***I am wondering how many ultralist members–
a.) Have ever run in a 6 day or similar event
b.) Have any interest in ever doing so
c.) Enjoy reading about such events
=20
I ask the above because I have received ENTHUSIASTIC responses to my
AZ 6 Day posts from ultrarunners in Mexico, Europe, Asia– but NOTHING
from any US runners.
Probably the MOST international race of the year (NY Self-Trans. 6 and
10 days) in the US is coming up in New York City the first week of May,
with runners from over 10 different countries already entered.

Best wishes to ultrarunners and ultrarunning fans everywhere,
