Runners must carefully balance the effort it takes to complete a single, four-plus mile loop, while still having time to grab food and rest before they set off again for each lap. After 24 hours, the starting field of 70 runners started to decline rapidly, with only five runners remaining by the end of day two.Dauwalter ticked off loops like literal clockwork.

Steene, of Sweden, has a long relationship with Laz, running Big’s Backyard in 2014 and participating in the Barkley Marathons multiple times.
