Top Stories of 2024 - Racers push physical and mental limits at Moab ultramarathon

from KZMU News · host KZMU News

As the year comes to a close, we reflect on some of our favorite stories from 2024. Today we hear about a local ultramarathon that took runners on a 240-mile loop from Moab to Indian Creek, up into the Abajos, into the La Sals, and back to town. Most runners average about 90 minutes of sleep per night, and the extreme exhaustion causes many of them to hallucinate. We talk to runners about the physical and psychological tolls of a race like this. This story originally aired on 10-17-24.
