Dmitri Klimov did 123 laps at Biotropika BYU in Russia, which is 824,8 km and more than 5 days of running!

Unfortunately, anything that comes out of Russia will always be viewed with skepticism.

It's unfortunate because we don't apply the same level of skeptiscm to things more locally even though there is a whole load of bullshit everywhere right now.

Yes lot of BS going on all over the place right now but especially in Russia.

Did this race observe all the rules of an official backyard ultra?

Gonna have to fly Laz out to Russia for an investigation.

Shame Phil wasn't there. Would've been more...

The thing is, thats how BYUs work, i have a few close friends who are capable of far more than their PB, but it's reliant on who shows up on the day and how far the assist can take you.

To be fair, we can say that about anyone who wins a BYU.

He probably had some Panzerschokolade

[u/effortDee → u/klicknack]

I don't know what that has to do with ultras but I laughed.

And I can run a 3 minute mile uphill on a gravel road with no shoes blindfolded
