    You can pay $130 to run a marathon there: https://raceroster.com/events/2024/72825/2024-death-valley-marathon-half-marathon-and-10k

    Had that one filed away in my mind because I once watched a documentary about Scott Juarek (a runner popular for being able to manage such feats) where the runners explained that they had to run on the white paint on the road so the soles of their shoes wouldn’t melt. Humans are crazy (and I’d love see how far I could go in such heat myself :D).
