From today's Washington Post. This one is so tough that even Dave Horton decided to bag it. The article also refers extensively to one competitor, Brian Robinson. Is that Flyin' Brian? The article doesn't say. Sounds like quite the ordeal... interesting read. Link (http://blog.washingtonpost.com/why-we-compete/2007/04/curiosity_1.html?hpid=artslot).

I haven't decided who's sicker, the organizer or the runners. Multiple 20 mile loops, run day and night, with no first aid support?

Horton has run this race a few times i believe, It is supposedly a race that is set up so no one can finish/ practically impossible but i think Horton did finish it once.
I would surely guess that Flyin Brian would try it. why not?
