Who are the toughest runners in the country? You can find out in a new competition. A man from Salzburg is planning Austria's longest ultra run and knows: "I know a few people who are that crazy."

The Salzach has a lot to offer in terms of nature. The picturesque landscape invites you to relax and unwind. Or does it? Because a man from Salzburg has now come up with the idea for Austria's longest ultra run along the river. After no less than 230 kilometers is the finish line. "I know some people who are that crazy," smiles organizer Norbert Lüftenegger, who is leading the project together with Matthias Mayer and Christian Neyka.
