The man speaks! #bm100

The 2025 Barkley Marathons is over. There are no finishers. #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

Parkrun could be coming to the Greenwich Peninsula later this year – but volunteers are needed to get the free 5k run off the ground.

Drop-in sessions for anyone interested in helping out will be held soon at a café near the event's proposed start line.

Runners have to be on Loop 2 within the next hour (12.57 am) in order to continue in the race. So far 6 runners are on Loop 2, 1 is in camp after finishing Loop 1, 13 have quit, the remainder are still on Loop 1. #BM100

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