The article at the above URL suggests that the reason that so many ultra
runners are male or childless women is childbirth envy.

Why do so many homosexuals and jews excel in sports and entertainment,
etc..
Why do men die 8 yrs younger than women. Straight women are accepted
unconditionally into society. They have nothing to prove. I betcha that
most of those female ultra runners are lesbians or worse.ie lesbian
jews

I would look at the opposite way: women with children do not have the
time to devote to ultra running.
