    I ran twice 24hrs in the stadium, not the same race, but one in Barcelona. It is hard to describe what really make you want to try the first time, then come back. But I admit that I have built similar attitude and "addiction" to keep coming back. From my side this is a mix of willing to make something really hard, share it with others, (extra)ordinary people, having something to be proud of yourself and finally the amazing feeling of crossing the line despite all the pain and sacrifice. This is hard to understand for big majority of people, but those who have tried, many will understand, without being able to explain it... hard to describe it really :))) There is something special about these races... give it a shot ;)

      @@denlolify I can only speak from my experience. If you train reasonably much before and in general are a runner for some years, the pain lasts 3-4 days. Walking is very hard 1-2 days, some blisters, swollen feet etc. I would say within a week you are back to normal, can start short, slow runs. This is my experience, but it is very personal and based on your body, experience, capability etc. In terms of injury during the 24h run...yes, there is some level of fear, but anytime I feel something is wrong I slow down, walk or just stop for some time. At the end some people withdraw after some hours, you can always just take a break. Last time I got a ankle injury and spend last few hours just walking. Could not run. If this comes back to me in longer future.... I guess that is the risk I am willing to take ;)

    This was amazing to witness. There was a quiet, meditative energy linked to the pure pain that the runners were going through. Even in the pain, they had a smile and a kind word. It was cathartic to see their overwhelming emotions come through at the end. So often we live through 24 hours without feeling the day go by, I'm sure these runners felt every second of that time. If they can do that, they can certainly do loads of other seemingly impossible things in the other 364 days of the year.

      When there's a lot of endorphins released onto our bloodstream while jogging, that's when we experience this euphoric state by which alot of us runners call it the 𝙧𝙪𝙣𝙣𝙚𝙧'𝙨 𝙝𝙞𝙜𝙝. Once we're able to experience the runner's high, pain subsides and we can continue on at the same pace for hours. I remember jogging at night during my 1st year in college (2011) I was supposed to start at 9pm and finish at 11pm. But due to experiencing a runner's high I kept on going until 5am the next day, I only stopped when I realized that it was sunrise already.

      Oh day 9 of walking again after L5 S1 L3 sequestration, I can only see sciatica while seeing these people run... but this is just another level of insanity, which i sincerely hope is on the cards for me in the future.
      I can't quite imagine it yet, but I feel having not being able to walk properly for 12 months once and now 10 weeks this time so far, that the answer to most doing this lies in not having fear of the extreme pain/complications that may occur, as they've been there. Or even had loved ones go to those places and are running to understand/support those they've seen in utter agony for long periods of time.
      Dono, just a guess from someone who aspires to do this kinda challenge.

    I have only done ultras less than 24hrs, but if I was in that track and you asked me, my answer would be: "These long races allow you to run well below threshhold and see how far your body can take you, no elevation changes, no rocks to trip over, no distractions, just you. They allow you to forget the stresses of the outside world for just a moment in time. Having no worries and running below threshold makes it easier to get in the 'running zone' or the 'runners high'. These races are not about beating others, but yourself and they make you get closer to your mental self." Thanks for the video Göran!

      @@NikkiDoesStufff May I ask if you run regularly, and if so, what your mileage is like? It's an individual experience, but for me, I only get runner's high if I've been consistently running ~20 miles a week (coming from a combination of workouts). Although that is plenty for me, it's not a lot in terms of how much distance runners will often train. I think the reason I need that baseline is that if I'm not running that much, there is no "below threshold" run. I.e. all running quickly becomes painful and difficult. Runner's high lasts and carries you through, but at least for me it doesn't come if my lungs aren't minimally capable.

    kinda similar feeling when I challenged myself to walk from my rent in Bratislava to Vienna... started at 6am, and finished pretty much by the strength of will and unwillingness to fail, arriving at around 12:15am at Erdberg Bus Terminal... according to the app, from those 18 hrs I spent around 15 on the move... still feels insane :)

      @@meadow2767 of course I kinda trained - at that time, I would wake up earlier before work and walk all the way there, like 6km there and then after work also back... before I did that Vienna thing, I did a little trial walk around Bratislava - started in Petrzalka and walked around most of it, before finishing somewhere in Zahorska Bystrica/Lamac, total of around 51km... ruined my shoes, my feet were one big blister (couldnt wear full shoes for almost a month :D ), but it proved useful, since I knew what I had to improve before tackling walking to Vienna - getting better shoes, better socks, and of course putting together a little medikit for blisters and such :D
      fun times :) since then I only did shorter and less insane ones - last time it was walking from Neuwaldegg (tram terminus in northern Vienna) along Tullner Strasse and such, all the way to Tulln, most of it in pouring rain :D ... still fun :D ... my reward was a slow but comfy train ride along Danube back to Vienna (on double decker coach Wiesel, so I had great views along the way) :)

    I feel like the reason us as humans do anything isn’t because we have to, it’s because we can. To prove to yourself you’re capable of breaking through the mental and physical barrier just to let yourself know you’re capable of more than what you think you are. That life is always about pushing yourself and trying to understand who you are better, in the grand scheme it’s just 1 day out of your very long life. Most people would take up 1 day doing trivial things but doing something entirely for yourself is amazing. Do it because you can.
