With books hidden in the woods, a cigarette-start, and elevation gain that amounts to summiting Mount Everest twice, the Barkley defies convention. Big’s Backyard Ultra pushes human beings to their absolute limit on a four-mile loop that is run every hour starting on the hour until there is just one runner standing—most recently, a high school teacher who ran 450 miles without sleep.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Author Jared Beasley uncovers the world of a recluse hell-bent on rewriting the rules to reveal a life reimagined and failure reinvented. Laz calls into question our obsession with winning and fairness, success and failure, and whether these ideas handicap potential.","brand":"80\/20 Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46549781315839,"sku":"9798990795822","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/Jacket_b099acdd-c782-48e4-8fa7-087be91ece68.jpg?v=1770746775","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9798990795822","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
