Out There - A Journey to the Barkley Marathons

Instagram: @KarelSabbe Facebook: Karel Sabbe Ultrarunning The Barkley Marathons - one of the world's toughest ultramarathons, has been held annually in the Frozen Head State Park, Tennessee, since 1987. The race is so brutal that, since the inception of the race, only 15 people have managed to finish. Runners are to run five 20-mile loops, within a 60 hour time limit and with more than 20.000m ...
The whole time I’m thinking when he’s complaining about craping and shortness of breath, maybe it’s the 12 cokes and six fantas lol
This is so gay.
Very inspiring
21:07 gets a whole new meaning with the 2024 race
So even if a hiker takes the books the runner gets a DNF?
Basically, I’m sure it has happened in the past but considering that we get more coverage of the event now, is only how we heard about it. The best part is that the hiker did not take it with them in this case. They brought it to camp.
karel you are so awesome
Absolutely brilliant I was in a run listening to this,inspired me to really love and appreciate it,such a class story,💪🏃🏃
Have a wonderful holiday Anders. Great work so far. It's great to be able to follow your progress & learn how you do to things, problem solve, etc.
I think the craziest thing if all is asking for sparkling water after running 5 back-back marathons. 😂 I couldn't imagine wanting carbonation after that.
So you only have to work out one loop, they are the same right ? The pages in different places each lap .? Bit confused
Each loop is same but you have to go clockwise and anticlockwise and continue like that for four loops. For the 5th loop, they send runners alternating. The books stay in the same spots for all 5 loops. The thing with running a race of this magnitude is that after running for 9-10 hours which is the first loop, your body/mind starts disorienting, plus for one of the either two loops, you do it in the dark, hence added on difficulty and you are again finding the book spots from anticlockwise direction (which is known to be difficult by all the Barkley runners, that’s why they prefer clockwise in 5th loop). You see this is all off trails, you in the forest, lack of sleep, body and mind tired, alone. So it just gets tougher with each loop, no matter how well you work out one loop.
Congratulations Karel and team, what an amazing accomplishment! Thanks, helps a lot!
What an amazing journey Karel, thanks for the video, helps a lot!
Fantastic and inspiring
Fucking hell I’m in tears. What an outstanding job you people did. I absolutely loved watching this!!!!!
Damn
49:33 When he says, next time they'll bring a pack of cigarettes... ("Volgende keer saffen meepakken, eh.") This refers to: "Prior finishers of the marathon who return to run again must submit a pack of Camel cigarettes as part of the registration fee." He wants Karel not only to win, but to return again.
La Belgique est fière de toi!
nice of andrew huberman to help take him back to camp
We need more videos
A woman as a trash can is so so funny. However she's busy this year. Go gettm.
It’s super scary too
I've seen several Barkley documentaries in the meantime and I have never seen a black person- not in one single shot. Then I read, that the Barkley is actually inspired by James Earl Ray, terrorist who murdered Martin Luther King. I don't think it's just coincidence...
It’s not inspired by him. It was actually a commentary of how he only ran 8 miles in more than 50 hours. The race is designed to show that these hills can be conquered. Laz has mentioned somewhere I can’t remember, that no way it is inspired by him or is an ode to him.

Proficiat Karel! ik ben, voor een keer, fier om Belg te zijn.
Joe simply walking straight towards you, clapping your incredible effort by himself and hugging you without either of you needing to say a thing 😭♥
Just amazing - what an accomplishment!
Astonishing.
Very well done, congrats on finishing the race 🎉😅😅
Amazing! I’m so happy for Karel.
Dam, iv been doing research about how to enter and secret it is a secret! Anyone that can help me I would APPRECIATE IT! I live to do crazy shit and this is just right!!!! Also, #barkleymarathons I'm sure you don't have a South African plate ;)
This is amazing. A video 4 years ago about the journey to beat barkleu, and he beat it…
His #2 man, gold star!! What a friend, a companion, a support staff!
My son's name is Jack too!! Lets go great job man on finishing!!!
Karel Sabbe, This is great! Let's be friends and have fun together!
What an amazing journey! What an amazing video! Ty for inspiring me, for real.
Hmm probs not the best idea to run behind someone who is 50 hours sleep deprived in a forest in pitch black
I love this time of year. I know I’ll get at least one good Barkley documentary
And Yasmin Paris? Didn#t she started in this race too?
Yes she started loop 4 that year but didn't finish
Good job! I'm interested in your foot care routine. What's the powder you're applying?
This would be an amazing film if the adverts didn't interrupt it every 5-7 mins... Like it's so frustrating and annoying!
on strapping his compass to his arm: "last year i had to take it out 100 times... thats 100 seconds, it can make a difference". Cue Jasmin Paris finishing with 99 seconds to spare
Dayum. Marginal gains
Climbing two Mount Everest in under 60 hours, anyone who finishes this race are gods among men, women and children, congratulations on beating the race.
@17:20 Laz gave him 23 because that sums up to 5.. as in 5 loops this time. Great job Karel!
Incredible accomplishment Karel! You never gave up. Even after the prior years accident. Inspiring!
pocket burger 🍔, love it 27:32
Gripping to watch.
1:01:38 well that didn't take long to break 🤣
Haha Jasmin said hold my beer. It’s incredible how these athletes come so close. Sheer strength and mental determination
Congratulations. Truly an unforgettable thing
Wa een beest, klasse prestatie !!
I am doing the ice queen in south africa this year. I am keen and also a little bit afraid. Documentaries like this keep me motivated.
Just having a friend like Joren must be amazing. All those challenges over the years and having that constant support all through your lifes achievments must be one hell of a feeling. What a guy!
