I like that they carry all their stuff. No wonder it's considered the hardest.
Those gaiters in the second pic, wonder what they're made of?

Wimps! (Not that I would even think about trying it!)

But if you really want some "fun" try the Barkley Marathon. There was a winner this year (he actually finished the race). Most years there are no finishers. It's quite a sadistic course. http://mattmahoney.net/barkley/
