Our Judges say:

Meet the characters running the Burning Man festival’s ultra marathon

Anna Paxton

ultra running at Burning Man festival. Freaky deaky! beautiful men running in pink tutus is the way forward.

Paul Hodgson Music Judge

A totally crazy fest for the eyes and senses here, this is an absolute must-watch and an eye opening insight into an insane desert race most people will never have heard of before. Some people do it in tutus, crazy costumes and face paint. Some do it naked. Of course? It's out there! Watch this!

A brilliant bizarre blend of Burning Man Festival and ultra running leads to the most wonderful feel-good kaleidoscope of colourful fun all ultra marathons should have from now on!

Ruth Farrar

Love this. Adventures of the mind, adventures of the body, Who you calling a lunatic....
