Recently I shared some stories and video on the Barkley Marathons, widely viewed as one of the toughest endurance events in the world. This year’s race was held two weekends ago, and once again not a single competitor managed to finish the race. This video gives us a sense of what the 2018 edition of the Barkley was all about. As usual, it is an event that crushes the souls of all who dare enter it.
