Nicodemus Hollon is one of the handful of people who have ever completed the mythical Barkley Marathons. A race where it’s common for there to be zero finishes.
In 2013, Nick finished in 57 hours 39 minutes and 24 seconds. The Barkley Marathons has been designed specifically for people to fail.
There is 60,000 feet of elevation change equivalent to ascending and descending Mount Everest twice, a 60 hour cutoff, there's no up-to-date website and the application process is shrouded mystery.
The entry fee for the first time entrants is $1.60 and you need to bring a car license plate from your home state. If you're one of the lucky 40 people to be accepted each year, you're given a letter of condolence.
Nick shares some hellish insights into the race eats it young.
Enjoy the interview.
