00:00If you think I'm a bad dude because I served in the SEAL teams, you're dead wrong.
00:15I'm a bad dude because how can you stop a man that truly believes he cannot die?
00:24I've been pushed to the absolute limit of the human body.
00:34I've never found anything else that would push me to that limit.
00:43Just outside of Franklin, Tennessee is this race called the Mid-State Mile.
00:48It's a last man standing format, meaning the race really has no end.
00:54It's a one-mile loop with 340 feet of elevation gain every mile.
01:00You got it, man!
01:02If you can't complete the loop in 20 minutes, you're out of the race.
01:06And the race goes on until no one is left.
01:12No prize money.
01:13Just knowing that you have pushed yourself to the absolute limit of your ability.
01:20It's just a mile.
01:22You can always run a mile.
01:24You can always run one mile.
01:26And all you have to do is keep your mind from telling your body to stop.
01:31A one-mile loop.
01:33It can't get any more simpler than this.
01:36Chad's coming in as the reigning champ.
01:40And so, all eyes are on him.
01:42Hey!
01:42Hey, what's up guys?
01:43Where you are?
01:44Navy Seal.
01:45I mean, you know, he's made of skin and bone and blood just like I am.
01:50I'm just going to crush that dude's soul, man.
01:53I'll probably freaking hurt him so bad he'll never race again.
01:59Usually when you stay back here in the back, you get to spend some time with every quitter.
02:05His only option is to drop me.
02:09He could turn it around.
02:10Anything could happen.
02:11We're going to have a good time.
02:14We might be doing this for the next 30 hours, man.
02:17Oh my gosh.
02:18No.
02:19Yes.
02:20Oh.
02:21I like it.
02:22We own the night.
02:25Start moving.
02:26Let's do it.
02:27Let's go.
02:28I want to push myself as far as my body will allow me to push it.
02:32Patience is what it takes to win out here.
02:37I can go a lot longer.
02:38It's foolish.
02:42I'm giving myself two options here.
02:44I'm just the old, dumb, redneck country boy man that figured out I live forever.
02:51I'm going to be the last man standing.
02:57Or I'm going to break my body.
02:59I'm going to break my body.
03:03Welcome to MidState.
