Based on data provided by UltraRunning Magazine, ultrarunners are extremely well-educated (96% have attended college/ 47% have post-graduate education) and have high discretionary income (Median HHI is $118,000 per year). As a community these brand loyal consumers are an ideal target market. Race directors continue to comment that advertising to this running sub-market is cost-effective and produces a high return on investment (ROI).
