See that nobody has finished the Barkley Marathon again......nobody finished now since 2017 what an unbelievable race! Definitely recommend the documentary on it on Netflix.

It’s fucking utter madness!!

I assume we don’t all have to start our run at 9? Obviously, not that I’m bothered as I won’t be doing anyway, but no idea how the “event” works on Strava, anyone care to enlighten me?

Running is tough enough but these Ultras, through the night, in the arse end of nowhere, are ridiculous.

Not a chance I would find my way even If I could do the distance.

No, it's normally as long as you start and end between 00:00:00 and 23:59:59 for these things. I'm assuming that's how we're doing it.

I’ll be starting mine at 8am.
Just do it when you can tomorrow.
Screen shot your time and a photo in a blue top.
good luck !

Im starting at 10:30am tomorrow, so will post my finishing time at 11am.

I’ll do mine about 11am. Do I need to do anything different on strava? It posts my run onto the bluemoon club doesn’t it or do I have to specifically post it on there?

just do it as you normally would. Title it ‘BMV 10K’ , I’m not sure it posts into the club.

Make sure you select 'Race' under the 'Run Type' section on Strava as this will give your elapsed time.

Pre race prep...... and not the bananas

Just a reminder that, for those of us running in miles, 10k = 6.214 miles. It also tends to round down, so I stop my watch at 6.23 which means it then displays as 6.22.

Just saying this so nobody ends up accidentally recording a few metres short of the full distance!
