The Marathon No One Could Finish
Quoting:
Today on Endurance Planet, a Breakaway Friday edition, we revisit a story that never gets old. It’s about a race done every year that is so ridiculously tough it’s nearly impossible to complete…The Barkley Marathons. As they say, “Humility awaits at the Barkley.” Thanks to Blake Wood for this amazing tale and to Neal Jamison for bringing it to life in the book Running Through the Wall…Personal Encounters With the Ultramarathon.
