endurance run

And that’s a lot coming from a man who has competed in the Ironman World Championship in Hawaii 11 times and won the legendary Western States Endurance Run, a 100-mile ultra-marathon in California’s Sierra Nevada.

Cooper has competed in the Ironman World Championship in Hawaii 11 times and has won the legendary Western States Endurance Run, a 100-mile ultra-marathon.

He described the motion picture as “a near-three-hour endurance run of gloomy photography and turgidly staged, emotionally empty two-way conversations, all seemingly designed to sap cast and viewers' combined will to live.”

Two mouthfuls of gum and enthusiastic chewing: That’s what Peter Bullard and George P. Fogg III were hoping would allow them to avoid disaster on the 1955 Great American Mountain Rallye Automobile Endurance Run.

If you decide to traverse the park’s two main trails, just know what you’re getting into: Western Ridge Trail’s roughly five-mile, largely dirt ground is perfect for runners who mostly want to avoid steep hills, while Valley Trail’s 5.4-mile dirt path is more of an endurance run with varying degrees of elevation throughout.
