The Badwater Ultramarathon is considered to be ‘the world’s toughest foot race.’ It is conducted on a 135-mile course starting at 282 feet below sea level in the Badwater Basin and ending at an elevation of 8,360 feet at the portal of Mount Whitney.
And, just for fun, the race runs right through the middle of Death Valley in the middle of July, when the weather conditions are the most extreme!
Find out what the experience is like from someone who completed the race on what very well may have been the hottest day on earth in 100 years.
