Entering the Barkley is a little different than entering most ultramarathons. With only 35-40 slots available each year, and literally hundreds of applicants, the demand far exceeds the supply. Rather than distributing Entry Forms randomly, applicants request an entry form when entry opens, after which a drawing is held and entry forms are sent to those who are selected. It is advised that you submit your request promptly when entry opens, as there are generally too many requests to accept more within about 5 minutes of the opening of entry.
As you will see in the following information, your entry request should include all possible data to improve your chances at gaining entry. Altho we refer to the request as an “essay on ‘Why I Should Be Allowed to Run the Barkley’”, it does not necessarily have to be in essay form. However, it will be the only thing we have to go by when we commence the drawings described below.
