* '''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.

There are many books published on marathon training, with different approaches. By comparison, ultramarathon training plans are new and don't have the history. Therefore, don't expect that same quality of training plans for ultras that you might be used to from marathon training.
