The 2026 Barkley Marathons is over. There are no finishers. #BM100

Under one hour left for the Fun Run and we have yet to see a runner’s light. #BM100

50 mile per hour wind, steady rain, less than 1:15 to go. The runners better be on Ball Bearing Hill if they hope to get here in time. Wherever they are, things are getting intense. This is the Barkley. #BM100

The rain has started and the wind has really picked up. Less than 1:20 remain for the runners to finish Loop 3. #BM100

Two hours left for the Fun Run and we have yet to see a runner’s light. #BM100

We are 36 hours into the race, meaning the three runners still on Loop 3 cannot continue to Loop 4. However, if they complete Loop 3 within 40 hours they will be credited with a Fun Run. That’s where the real race is now. #BM100

Maxime Gauduin quit on Loop 3 with no pages and is tapped out. Three runners remain in the race. #BM100

John Kelly has finished Loop 2 in 25:00:40. #BM100

Tomokazu Ihara is the first to finish Loop 2 in 24:32:50. #BM100

Ten runners completed Loop 1 within the time limit; 9 continued to Loop 2. 14 runners have been tapped out; 16 remain on Loop 1 and will be tapped out when they return. #BM100

After a brief memorial, laz lit the cigarette at 11:37. The 2025 Barkley Marathons has begun. #BM100

Hey MAGA! Just because someone is a woman or a racial or sexual minority doesn’t mean they’re a DEI hire. Yes, there are unqualified people being appointed to government positions in the Trump administration, but they are mostly unqualified, straight white male idiots.
