Taco Bell 50K
It has been described as Urban Legend. More mysterious and barking spiders than the Barkley Marathons. The International Taco Bell 50k boasts a higher DNF rate than the famed Leadville 100 Trail Race. As the tale is told, the race began with a hot tub, a stoic Russian, a short king from New York, and Susie. The race has been held annually in Denver, Colorado in early October, which coincidentally coincides with International Taco Day. It is a good idea to engage in gastric training. If you complete the challenge, you will be deemed a SURVIVOR, revered and heckled for life!
(This is an untimed event…)
Race Rules
