Pain is just a word for bread

This looks grueling.

Put on your best pink tutu, peacock feathers or Viking hat and get ready to run – and drink! Held on 11 September in 2021– just in time for wine harvest – the annual Marathon du Médoc brings contestants to more than 30 vineyards in the wine region of Médoc in France, north of Bordeaux.

They’ll stop for as many wine, oyster, foie gras and even steak tasting sessions as they can before the 6-hour, 30-minute cut-off time, all the while being serenaded by orchestras dispersed throughout the vineyards.

Oh, the pain!

All you need to know is here.
