RAAM

It’s known as “The Toughest Race on Earth”. It’s 30% longer than the Tour de France. You need to average between 250 and 350 miles per day to finish the race. The clock doesn’t stop. There are no aid stations. If you want to stop, you lose time and position. You cover over 3,000 miles, cross 14 states, and climb over 100,000 feet of elevation (almost four times the altitude of Mt. Everest). Austrian adventurer Wolfgang Fasching has won solo RAAM three times and climbed Mt. Everest. In his opinion, “Everest is more dangerous, but RAAM is much harder.” You will need to try to consume over 8,000 calories a day but your body will still burn more than you can feed it. You need to drink about 3 gallons of fluids a day. Many have attempted RAAM, but less than 200 people have completed the race in the solo category. So we know it can be done.
