135 miles from Death Valley to Mt Whitney in July heat that can reach 130°F, making this the world's toughest foot race. Your shoes may melt on the asphalt, hallucinations are common, and crew support is mandatory - but crossing from the lowest to highest points in the continental US creates an epic that few humans can comprehend.
