Sometimes you meet people and you can tell they will have some good stories. I met Andre at the Ohio Backyard Ultra (OBU) because we were crewing different runners. Our runners went on into the second day so I had the chance to chat with Andre and I wanted to have him on the podcast to talk about his style of backyard ultra that he race directs in Canada, along with race directing a race similar to the Barkley Marathons that Lazarus Lake puts in in Frozen Head State Park each spring. The races are very similar, but also some notable differences.

"This race is too hard for women. They are simply not tough enough to do it, and I get to say that for as long as it takes until someone proves me wrong." - Lazarus Lake, Race Director for the Barkley Marathons. Enter Jasmin Paris. Sorry Lazarus. But first, Des and Kara kick things off with their usual banter talking about solving the world's problems on a run, and perhaps relatedly or unrelatedly, Des's final prep for Boston, including her typical taper routine. Is Des a barely-taper or extreme-taper type of athlete, and has she ever gotten lost on a Boston Marathon course preview run? They also discuss their routines for picking running routes. Which of Des or Kara is the psycho who runs the same route every day?!? A serial killer trait to be sure... Then digging into recent events, you get their hottest takes on the results from World XC, the Barkley Marathons, and the NCAA Women's Basketball tournament, where the women are setting viewing records left and right. As a bonus, you learn the backstory of how Kara just missed her chance to be a late '90s version of Caitlin Clark. So, so close. Finally, the episode ends with a new segment sponsored by Oiselle where Des and Kara each give their "Underbird" underdog of the week performance.

Episode 137Ah, the Barkley Marathons, the stuff of legend, the race that laughs in the face of conventional marathons and says, "Hold my water bottle." Imagine a race so challenging, so obscure, that even attempting it feels like signing up for a journey to the edge of the known universe. Welcome to the Barkley Marathons, where the organizers are as mysterious as the race itself, the rules are more like guidelines, and the finish line is a mythical oasis in the midst of an endurance desert.The organizers of the Barkley Marathons are the stuff of folklore. Led by the enigmatic Gary "Lazarus Lake" Cantrell, they operate in a shroud of secrecy, revealing just enough information to entice runners to the starting line without giving away too many details about what lies ahead. It's like being invited to a dinner party where the menu is a closely guarded secret, and the only guarantee is that you'll leave with a story to tell.As for the race itself, well, it's not your average Sunday morning fun run. The Barkley Marathons consists of five loops through Frozen Head State Park in Tennessee, totaling roughly 100 miles (although the actual distance is a matter of some debate). Runners must navigate treacherous terrain, dense underbrush, and steep inclines, all while contending with the unpredictable whims of Mother Nature. Oh, and did I mention that each loop must be completed within a strict time limit, or risk being "tapped out" and sent packing? It's like a game of survival bingo, where the stakes couldn't be higher and the odds are never in your favor.And then there are the rules, or lack thereof. The Barkley Marathons operates on a "gentleman's agreement" system, where runners are expected to adhere to an honor code and rely on their own wits and instincts to navigate the course. There's no GPS tracking, no aid stations (except for a single makeshift one at the start/finish line), and certainly no cheering crowds to lift your spirits when the going gets tough. It's just you, the trail, and your own inner demons, duking it out in a battle of endurance and willpower.But amidst the chaos and uncertainty, there are moments of triumph and glory. And this weekend, history was made as Jasmine Paris became the first woman to finish the Barkley Marathons. Against all odds, she conquered the unforgiving terrain, the relentless time limits, and the doubts that surely whispered in her ear with every step. Her victory is a testament to the power of perseverance, the strength of the human spirit, and the enduring allure of the Barkley Marathons.So here's to Jasmine Paris, the trailblazer who shattered expectations and blazed a new path through the wilderness. And here's to the Barkley Marathons, a race like no other, where the only thing more elusive than the finish line is the sense of accomplishment that comes with crossing it.May the legends continue to grow, the challenges continue to inspire, and the spirit of adventure never fade away. After all, in the world of the Barkley Marathons, anything is possible – even a woman making history in the heart of the Tennessee wilderness.Thank you for sticking with me.Darren.Music: Wings ~ JetThe Boss ~ Born to RunSupport the showInsta@justpassingthroughpodcastContact:justpassingthroughpodcast@gmail.comArtwork @digitalnomadicart on Insta

Ultrarunning History
147: Gary Cantrell (Lazarus Lake) – Before the Barkley

Ultrarunning History

Play Episode Listen Later Dec 11, 2023 29:36


Gary Cantrell (a.k.a. Lazarus Lake), of Tennessee, was recently inducted into the American Ultrarunning Hall of Fame. Most people recognize him for creating the legendary Barkley Marathons, arguably the toughest trail race in the world. But few understand that he once was a talented runner during the 1970s and early 1980s. His running exploits when he was in his 20s and 30s groomed his experience into the most famous extreme sports race director in the world, and into an encyclopedia of ultrarunning wisdom. To understand the complexities of the man, Gary Cantrell, before he became Lazarus Lake, one must learn about his background and experiences that led up to the birth of the Barkley. Gary Duane Cantrell was born in 1954, in Texas. His parents were Franklin Delano Cantrell (1933-2012) and Florence Earlene (Dishman) Cantrell (1933-2022) both of Tulsa, Oklahoma. They were married in 1852. In 1954, his father was in the army and went to Fort Bliss, in El Paso, Texas, for basic training. His mother went to live with her family. Gary arrived four months later in Caldwell, Texas, but the family still claimed Tulsa, Oklahoma, to be their home. His brother Douglas arrived a few years later. Gary's Ancestry Gary's ancestral roots were solidly southern. His Cantrells lived in Tennessee and Arkansas for generations. He had ancestors who were among the early Colonial American settlers. His first Cantrell ancestor in America was his 7th Great-grandfather, Richard Cantrell (1666-1753) who emigrated from England to Colonial America in 1682 to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He was at first a servant to another man, probably serving an apprentice learning to be a brickmaker. It is believed that he made the bricks for the first two brick homes built in Philadelphia. Gary's 4th Great-Grandfather, Thomas J. Cantrell (1761-1830) fought in the Revolutionary War for North Carolina and was the first Cantrell ancestor to settle in Tennessee. He operated “Old Forge” in Sink, Creek, Tennessee. On Gary's mother's side, the Dishmans lived for generations in Missouri and Kentucky. His first Dishman ancestor in America was his 6th Great-Grandfather, Samuel Duchemin (1640-1727) from France. He came to America in about 1693, settled in Virginia, and Anglicized his name to Dishman. His grandsons fought in the Revolutionary War, including Gary's 4th Great-Grandfather, Jeremiah Dishman (1752-1841). Civil War Ancestors Nearly all of Gary's ancestral families were deeply impacted by the Civil War. His 3rd-great grandfather, Ransom Blades (1821-1901), who Gary must have patterned his beard after, was an outspoken Union sympathizer living in Missouri, favoring the Northern causes. During the war, fearing for his life, Ransom, a father of eleven, had to flee Missouri and went to Kansas. Other ancestors fought on the side of the Confederacy, including 2nd-great-grandfather, James Brashears (1846-1935) for Missouri, 3rd-great-grandfather Hamp Martin (1820-1902), for Arkansas, 2nd great-grandfather, and Clement Hunt (1839-1913), for Arkansas. Most of Gary's ancestors were not enlisted in the conflict but affected by the battles, lost brothers or sons, and had troops raid their towns. Childhood Gary's Grandparents and family Gary's grandparents were James Allen Cantrell (1896-1983) and Lucy Cordelia Wilson (1899-1985) of Arkansas. In about 1918, they moved to Oklahoma, in a covered wagon and raised their family there, where James worked as a laborer on an oil rig and then farmed. Gary's father, Franklin, grew up working hard in the fields using mules to plow. His father was an outstanding athlete and a star on his sports teams. His farm was next to the farm of Andy Payne (1907-1977), who won the 1928 race across America (The Bunion Derby). Gary's father knew him well and told Gary many stories about Payne's famed run. Running Across a Pasture As a child, Gary would enjoy hunting with his father and grandfather in the outdoors.

Lazarus Lake is a renowned ultramarathon runner and designer. His most famous creation (along with his friend Raw Dog) is the Barkley Marathons, an absurdly difficult 100-mile race through the Tennessee wilderness that only 17 people have ever finished in its nearly 30-year existence. Tyler and Laz discuss what running 100 miles tells you about yourself that running 26 miles does not, why so many STEM professionals do ultramarathons, which skill holds people back the most, why his entrance fee is no more or less than $1.60, the importance of the Barkley's opaque application process, how much each race costs to mount, whether he sees a decline in stoicism and inner strength in America, what accounting taught him about running, which books influenced him the most, who's going to win the NBA title next year, how he's coping with increasing fame, the competition he's most focused on now, and more.  Read a full transcript enhanced with helpful links, or watch the full video.

Each year since 1986, in Frozen Head State Park Tenessee, a race has taken place that teeters on the brink of being impossible to finish. An enigma of an event that eschews marketing, GPS tracking, and largely even race fees, and has a reputation as a serious contender for the title of toughest race on Earth. In this episode, we talk to 3 runners who recently put in outstanding performances at the event. John Kelly was already one of the tiny group of people to ever finish the race and this year joined the even smaller group of those to finish it 2 times or more. Jasmin Paris put in the best performance by any female athlete in the history of the race, and Damian Hall managed to get all the way out onto loop 4 in his first-ever Barkley. We also have Keith Dunn, master of Barkley Twitter, the only link between the race organisation and the outside world, chatting with Will about how he came to be such a big part of the event.

The Barkley Marathons es la prueba ultra de trail running más extrema del mundo: 160 kilómetros con 20,000 metros de desnivel con un límite de 60 horas. Es tal la dureza de la carrera que hasta 2022 sólo 15 personas pueden presumir de haberla acabado en sus más de 30 ediciones. Aquí te cuento la historia de que fue lo que inspiró a Gary Cantrell mejor conocido como Lazarus Lake a crear esta locura que todos los años recibe miles solicitudes para participar y que sólo 40 corredores son seleccionados.
