The Fitness Gram Pacer Test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The 20 meter pager test will begin momentarily, line up at the start. The running test starts off slowly but gets more difficult when you here this sound, a single lap is then completed when you hear this sound.

I’ve actually watched a documentary on one of his races being done from start to finish. It is brutal and unrelenting. The most crucial thing is their footwear. Because they cross many streams the challenge is to keep your feet dry. God help those that wear new shoes. The layering of socks is an art form. Even with all cautions, it is the feet that can make or break finishing in so many contestants.
blisters and brambles. those saw briar are no joke. that'd be my main strategy besides nutrition. some ppl end up with basically the entire bottom of their foot as a blister, the skin all white, from water and wear the epidermis detaches. gotta hurt like all getout. if I tried this I'd probably spend 6 months callousing my feet like a kung fu trainee strengthening their bones. I'm no athlete though, chronic skeletal muscular injury. but that almost makes me want to try more, just to see how far. maybe if it's still there in 5 years...
Keeping your feet dry is easy. There's plenty of socks out there that are waterproof. However, whether these socks alone are comfortable enough the allow you to do the grueling race is another story. Maybe layer another sock inside? idk.
this reminds me of budget endurance racing with "$500" cars. It started as a parody until it became so professional that two cars could finish a 24 hours race 0.04 seconds apart. Same time split as top tier professionals.
Some things not mentioned in the video, The race can start from any time from 12 am to 12 pm and is announced one hour prior by the sound of a bugle It is extremely hard to enter because there is no website and no address. When you get your acceptance letter it is formatted as condolences
When I was doing the Appalachian I swore I had seen the same fucking mountain twice in one day. After I stopped and looked at the map I realized I had, whoever had marked the mountain trail that I was on stupidly marked the loop trail the same as the Appalachian trail.
I’m reading a book right now, written by someone who’s brother participated in the Barkley Marathon, and it’s actually not all that uncommon for runners to experience hallucinations from sleep deprivation and pain. One runner in particular actually straight up forgot they were in a race and wandered around the woods.

He doesn't care if you finish, win or tap out. He's happy when he can tell that you challenged yourself and achieved beyond what you thought you could. He's doing this to show you that your stronger than you think, all the time, and he wants you to carry that strength with you in everything you set out to do. It's not a competition between competitors, it's a competition with yourself. If more people finished, there could only be 1 winner. But his way, everybody can win.
Throw it in there forum but they tend to be more interested in socal/mental challenges than physical ones. But you know who has the interest, and the drive to see it get done? YOU! Good luck seek discomfort! Join the movement
I have an idea of course so cruel so hard it might just turn people away or it might strike a tone in a persons heart.You have to race around the roughest Torrain onOn planet earth. Six times and under two hours.But not only that you will be taunted by actors They will stay stereotypes about your skin color your sexuality your identity who you are they will yell. They will have the intent to break your spirit but in a certain person it doesn’t Break it makes it stronger. It will test your willpower it will test everything.
A man was sitting on the sidewalk hitting himself in the head with a hammer. A passerby asked, "Why are you hitting yourself in the head with a hammer?" "Because it feels so good when I stop." This is that.
Yes, but iirc even if he hadn't been late, he would have been disqualified because he accidentally deviated from the course in the final lap more than was acceptable.
0:33 I think people are obsessed with comfort to the point that they forget if you don't have any discomfort in your life, how do you know when you feel good? That are some words to remember.
He's right about having discomfort in your life, but there's a limit; to run 5 miles is healthy and a good challenge. But, to run 100 miles could damage your feet, legs, and you could seriously get sick or hurt from this.
@@shak9558 He would 100% finish this. I'm not sure what physical condition he's in now, but at the tine he ran all of the other ultras, he could. He's honestly one of the most mentally & physically tough men who has ever lived...if other guys are finishing this, he can too.
Obviously Goggins has incredible, remarkable mental strength. However, this is a timed, physically exhausting ultra race. It takes more than physical athleticism and mental fortitude to complete this race. I doubt he has the distance background to complete a Barkley. I imagine it takes a combination of unbelievable acuity and focus in addition to years of development for both slow twitch muscles and the cardiovascular system.

canica99 Tarahumaras live their entire lives barefoot, living in the mountains in the north parts of Mexico. They live through extreme weather changes, climb the highest mountains, travel with their cattle and do other stuff barefoot if they need to. They usually wear sandals, but if the sandals just go to waste, then it means you go barefoot until you get any leather. They wear sandals in the mountains even if it’s snowing... SANDALS. And they wear them if they want to. Hell, I know some Tarahumaras and they tel, you they can’t feel anything from their feet, they just don’t get tired. Fun fact: They don’t call themselves “Tarahumara”, they are “Raramuri” which means “Of Light feet” in their native language. It’s a pretty interesting indigenous group from Mexico, really amazing too.
Mr Blue Sky doubt they’d be able to find the finish line though. You have to follow a map through a pretty specific route and if you get lost it’s hard to find your way back, especially since they never would have been in the forest before
this kind of area is common in my country yet no one in my country ever think of using the terrain to attract tourism like this guy, now I see why he is consider to be smart.
