…but feel free to run it…

 

I was talking to some teammates about running and I mentioned a TV show I recorded about an endurance runner here in Seattle. He was showcased on a local program regarding his first attempt at running the Badwater Ultra-Marathon – 135 miles from the lowest point in Death Valley to the mid-point of Mt. Whitney, the tallest mountain in the lower 48.

 

I sent this info to a friend of mine who runs marathons and he forwarded a link to me this morning about the world’s longest race. Now in its 10th year, the Self-Transcendence Race is a 3100 mile, 51 day race around a single city block in Jamaica, Queens. Not a typo – Three Thousand One Hundred Miles. More information on the sponsor of this and other ultra-races here.

 

For the record, *I* am not even considering anything more than a standard marathon……but some of you…..   J

 

 

Cheers!
