Meet Michael McKnight and Ben Light, two guys who take running to the extreme.

Micheal and Ben are just two of the sixteen total individuals participating in the Moab 240 race next weekend, and their running doesn't end there.

The Moab 240 is just one race in a three-part race that completes the Triple Crown. Between all three races, Michael and Ben will run a total of 645 miles.

They fill us in on the biggest trials, their previous races, and why they do it.
