Carol Morgan

Carol Morgan (born 1973) is an Irish ultrarunner, who specialises in non-stop mountain ultramarathons 100 km and longer, often in challenging conditions with significant ascents / descents.

[14] 2010 was particularly difficult with less than 5 minutes separated first and second place with both athletes experiencing the last 2 mile incline, known as the 'hell of the west' because it affords competitors a clear view of the finish long before you reach it,[15][16] together.

[3] She has chosen increasingly technical mountain events that require navigational knowledge and mandatory safety kits, and courses that include significant ascents / descents.

In 2016 she placed 20th Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc[19] in warm weather conditions on a course which requires participants to demonstrate technical skills by accumulating points from a list of qualifying races.

[22] In 2018 Morgan won the Glendalough Clover Ultra [23] which weaves its way around the Wicklow Way despite successfully defending her 2018 Spine Race title just a few weeks previously.
