On August 30, 2023 begins the world's longest race. 14 runners - 9 men and five women, will begin the 52 day test of running and recovering.
Each runner will start the event at 6:00 am local time, and attempt to make their abilities respond to the difficulty of that day, that hour, or that moment.
Remember, they are running a course around and around, the course being .5488 of a mile (883.207km). The runners have 18 hours to reach the necessary distance of 59.618 miles/ 95.946 km per day. The midnight stoppage is the endless touch of 'Hurry up and finish'....
Follow the race every day, who knows what will happen and who will designate the movements to come.
