Below are some selected ultramarathon training plans. I have not used any of these plans, but I have selected them on the basis of having a reasonable level of detail and some credibility.

=Notes=
* '''Back to back'''. Many ultramarathon training schedules use two long runs on consecutive days, and this is the longest of those back to back pairs.
* '''Peek Weekly'''. This is the longest week, if specified.
* '''Day/week'''. How many days does the plan intend you to run.
* '''Speedwork'''. What, if any, faster running is included in the plan. MP = marathon paced runs.
* '''Time/Distance'''. Does the plan specify the length of the run in terms of time or distance.
* '''Level Of Detail'''. Some plans will give each days run, specifying distance and pace, where others may only give a broad outline.
