| + | * **Ultra Distance **there is no single governing organization for really long paddle races so there is **not one official definition** of the distance where long or marathon distance becomes "ultra". Some paddlers suggest **50 km** or longer while others think that ultra should only begin at **100 or even 200 miles** and more. Others suggest that the definition should require a certain degree of **hardship and suffering**. | ||
