Charlie Engle (born September 20, 1962), is one of the most accomplished ultramarathon runners in the world and author of the riveting memoir "Running Man."
 Engle has a track record of winning or placing in many of the toughest endurance foot races across the globe.
 He has raced in jungles, summited high ranging mountains and volcanoes, and traversed large expanses of deserts through sand storms.
 Among his most notable races in the United States is the Badwater Ultramarathon.
 This is an annual race that stretches 135 through Death Valley, California in July.
 This punishing race ends after a steep climb of Mt. Whitney.
 In the world of Ultramarathons this race, often reaching temperatures around 130 °F is frequently coined "The Toughest Foot Race in the World."
 Beginning in the 1990s into the early 2000s, Engle competed in the Eco-Challenge series put on by Mark Burnett (the creator of the wildly popular CBS television series, "Survivor").
 The Eco-Challenge took Engle to Borneo, New Zealand, and Vietnam.
 The list of Engle's international races is long, but he is most well known for running across the Sahara Desert, from coast to coast, in 2007.
 Engle's historic and record setting journey was documented in the film "Running the Sahara", narrated by Matt Damon.
 He was joined by two other runners: Ray Zahab of Canada and Kevin Lin of Taiwan.
 This transcontinental run through deep sand and politically unstable countries remains one of the premier accomplishments in the ultrarunning sport.
 The runners completed over 4,500 miles, averaging over two marathons per day, for 111 consecutive days.

The Badwater Ultramarathon describes itself as "the world's toughest foot race".
 It is a 135 mi course starting at 279 ft below sea level in the Badwater Basin, in California's Death Valley, and ending at an elevation of 8360 feet (2548 m) at Whitney Portal, the trailhead to Mount Whitney.
 It takes place annually in mid-July, when the weather conditions are most extreme and temperatures can reach 130 F .
 Consequently, very few people—even among ultramarathoners—are capable of finishing this grueling race.
Running on the Sun: The Badwater 135 is a 2000 documentary film directed by Mel Stuart.
 The film follows athletes as they run 135 miles in the 1999 Badwater Ultramarathon, starting in California's Death Valley and ending at Whitney Portal, the trailhead to Mount Whitney.

 He made 5 starts in CART in 1993 and 1994 with a best result of 15th.
 He joined the Indy Racing League in its inaugural 1996 season but had a transmission failure during the pace lap of what would've been his first Indianapolis 500 and was not credited with a race start.
 In 1997 he made his first start in the Indy 500 starting in the 35th position after league and speedway owner Tony George added his and Lyn St. James' car to the field because slower cars than theirs were guaranteed starting positions because of prior races.
 He went on to finish 18th, his best "500" result in 5 starts.
 Unser drove the majority of his IRL races for Hemelgarn Racing and in his 14 career IRL starts he had a best finish of 9th in his very first series start in 1996 at Phoenix International Raceway.
 His last major open wheel race was the 2000 Indy 500.
