Ugh...Why Would You Do That? Tips for Aspiring Ultra-Marathoners by Mike Roberts


Mike Roberts has taught eighth grade English in Salt Lake City for the past fourteen years. In an attempt to drop some weight, he started running six years ago. After a couple dozen half and full marathons, he fell in love with ultra marathons, and now primarily runs on the trails. He is currently training for his next challenge - a 450 mile run from Salt Lake to Las Vegas (in late June...just to make it more fun!)
