Jared Beasley is a journalist who spent three years writing The Endurance Artist, the only authorized biography of Gary Cantrell (Lazarus Lake) and the Barkley Marathons. To earn Laz's trust, he had to solve a math problem, run a backyard race he quit when it got hard, and wait for an email he wasn't sure would ever come.

You heard pieces of this conversation in Episode One of the documentary. Here you get the full interview: on the ground, inside the story, with the energy of someone who has just watched something extraordinary happen.
