The age of the best ultramarathon performance - the case of the “Comrades Marathon” With a non-linear regression you can represent the age of the best mileage wonderful if you apply the average of the mileage in 1-year intervals. With this method, marathon runners were shown that the same result comes out when studying the fastest runners as well as all runners in 1-year intervals.For ultra-raptors, such an analysis is missing and we have now looked at around 200,000 finishers at the Comrades Marathon at what age the best ultramarathon performance is achieved. Now, when all runners are investigated at 1-year intervals, the men are the fastest most than 30 years, while around 36 years.
If, on the other hand, one takes only the fastest in 1-year intervals, the age is around 36 years in men and around 33 years in women. Special details are to be found under https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28114817/
