Multi-marathoners display distinct psychological traits, particularly high conscientiousness and lower emotional stability. These findings highlight the need for tailored psychological interventions to support multi-marathon athletes' participation and well-being. Future research should explore longitudinal patterns and explore the efficacy of psychological interventions to enhance participation and well-being.
