[WATCH] This guy ran five ultra marathons at Burning Man
Burning Man immediately established itself as a unique place during the first burn in June of 1986. Way before festivals became the biggest events of the summer, Black Rock City became a mecca for those looking to dance in the desert.
Dancing, however, isn’t the only thing to do at Burning Man. One attendee has made the pilgrimage to the Nevada desert and ran an ultra marathon — 31 miles — at five different iterations of the festival. In a display of the sheer size and logistical marvel of setting up the festival, the entire race consists of just four laps around the festival’s perimeter. For those who don’t wish to run the race for themselves, this participant has uploaded a video of his performance for all to enjoy.
