I have a number of people or things I Google at random intervals. “Rem Koolhas”, “fixed gear bike” “Amartya Sen” and “Devine Madness Ultra-marathon”

Devine Madness is an ultra-marathon running group often labeled a cult. One of their members died after running a forty eight hour long footrace for which the group received a lot of really bad press. They pretty much went into hiding after that to regroup. Well, now there is a major series of articles on them in a New Mexico paper.

Endurance sports nerds can read about the freakiest of the freaky long distance runners here. (you have to watch a stupid ad first.)
