Today is all about the records. Here’s another one that just was reset: At the Legends Backyard Ultra in Belgium on 26 April 2025 Łukasz Wróbel ran for 116 and Jan Vandekerckhoe for 115 hours. Keeley Milne for Canadian Running:
Polish ultrarunner Łukasz Wróbel set a staggering new backyard ultra world record on Wednesday at Legends Backyard Belgium, held in Retie, Belgium. Starting early Saturday morning, Wróbel ran for 116 consecutive hours, racking up more than 777 kilometres. Belgian runner Jan Vandekerckhove served as Wróbel’s assist, finishing 115 yards before he could no longer continue.
Unfathomable distances… and really the perfect sport for the Olympics – have the event be the first to start after the Opening Ceremony and see if runners last for the entire time.
Thanks Federico Hernandez for reminding me to share this.
