This is second hand advice - I have done regular Ragnar and know several who've done ultra.   The advice to double-up your runs so you are only running 3 times and not 6.  Otherwise, you never get a chance to sleep.  I know of a team where the captain insisted on a regular rotation plus everyone had to get out and cheer for all runners.   They were really in bad shape at the end.

Have fun!

Using a high-volume schedule for many months is not the best tactic. Build speed and skill several months out, and then transition to a high-volume IM plan.

Honey, great news. I just spent our kids’ college fund on a new bike! The sales guy said it will shave at least 3 seconds off my 40K time. Umm, honey why do you have a knife in your hand???

A lot of my unnecessary troubles and tribulations were because of my defiance, acting on my own naïveté and strong will. I was not acting on the advice given to me.
