Backyard Ultra - Another Level of Crazy or The Race of Hope

Image
      THERE IS NO FINISH!   I think this sentence expresses well the spirit of this new level of madness.  This is a race that in its early hours doesn't seem to be particularly demanding. After all, it's about running consecutive laps of 6706 meters in less than 60 minutes .  The ultimate goal is to complete 24 laps, or continue until all other athletes have given up.

    After all, the best way to travel is to feel. To feel everything in every way. To feel everything excessively Because all things are, in truth, excessive And all reality is an excess, a violence, An extremely vivid hallucination That we all live in common with the fury of the souls, The center to which tend the strange centrifugal forces That are human psyches in their harmony of senses. - Álvaro de Campos
