On the RFL (Runner's for Life) mailing list we have a new member , her name is Priyadarshini from Mumbai, beware guys she is the first Indian women Ultra Marathoner. The definition given by Wikipedia is "An ultra marathon is any running event longer than the traditional marathon length of 42.195 kilometers (26.21875 miles, 46,145 yards)." more you can read here.
Now more on the "beware" part she has just completed the 100 mile Himalayan Stage Run, yes you read it correctly it is 100 miles (160 Km). Quite an inspiring story, you can read her experiences here and By the way this was her first marathon.
