Outside magazine has a pretty cool discussion of the theory that women tolerate running fatigue better than men (which could explain their better relative performance at ultramarathon distances).
"The differences here are pretty stark. Women demonstrate far better durability: they hardly slow down at all in the uphill time trials, while men get progressively slower. In the final time trial, men are ten percent slower on average, while women are only one percent slower."
(but see reasons to believe this might not be apples-to-apples)
