The Most DISTURBING Marathon on Earth | Running Gone Wrong
Imagine running through the dark, lost in a foggy forest with no trail around. Freezing rain cuts your skin as sharp ice under bare feet. You slide down hills, scratch through stickers ripping skin. Climbing up again takes your last bits of strength. Your eyes play games on you and your mind is as exhausted as your body. The pounding pain in your battered feet and squeezed stomach screaming at you to stop. But you keep stumbling on, even as you start hallucinating. You squeeze the map, shaking, fumbling to figure out where you are. The time limit ticks away without mercy, each second bringing you closer to failure. But still you run, forced beyond reason, chained to this torturous race that grabs your hope and drags you into its endless, painful jaw of despair. This is the reality of every runner who chooses to enter the ultramarathon that eats its young. With a finish rate of less than 1%, this race is statistically harder than reaching the summit of Mt. Everest.
Join us as we uncover the crazy story of the Barkley Marathons - the most grueling endurance race in the world.
