I will definitely look for the movie. While someday I may consider running an ultra, I will stick to watching this one.

I’d like to second watching ‘Running on the Sun’ Unbelieveable. Really. What these people go through – sometimes year after year. Just amazing. Also, Dean Karnazes writes his account of Badwater in ‘UltraMarathon Man’. It’s very engaging.

If you are interested in Badwater, then you should really watch a documentary about the race called Running on the Sun.

My work colleague, Jay Hodde, finished Badwater last summer. We followed his progress via the website and it was very good.

The race is incredible, almost indescribable. Any of us that have done a (mere) marathon stand in particular awe of doing five of them back to back in summer heat and brutal moutain climbs.

A very, very special race, indeed.
