The Line – Badwater 135: From Hell To Heaven | Mount to Coast [utd1Q7jxBtu]
The Badwater 135 Ultramarathon is widely considered the world's toughest foot race. It covers 135 miles from Death Valley to Mt. Whitney, CA, starting at the lowest elevation in North America and ending at the trailhead to the highest point in the contiguous United States at 8,360 ft (over 2,500 m). In addition to the distance and elevation change, athletes must deal with huge swings in temperature – Death Valley earned its name by being the hottest place on earth. It's a race that requires perfect planning, years of consistent training, and a whole lot of luck just to complete. But those who do reach the finish will have enough stories to last a lifetime. In 2025, Mount to Coast followed Meg Eckert, Kaylee Frederick and Sierra DeGroff on their journey across the desert.
