Rachel Entrekin Runs On Joy: How She Won The Cocodona 250 Outright By Letting Go Of The Outcome
"19 minutes of sleep over 56 hours is insane. Your first nap didn't even happen until you were almost at the 200-mile mark. Yeah, I hadn't slept at all. And then that nap was 5 minutes. Each time I was literally unable to keep my eyes open. 5 to 7 minutes makes a huge, huge difference."
Rachel Entrecan revealed she ran 250 miles on only 19 minutes of total sleep, taking her first 5-minute nap at the 200-mile mark. She described sleep as rebooting like a computer, with even 5-7 minute naps producing dramatic performance improvements. This extreme sleep deprivation protocol contributed to her breaking the course record by 7 hours.
