There is a gauntlet race somewhere in Appalachian US that only 20 or 30 have ever finished. It's a 30 hour race through the woods if I recall correctly. EDIT:

EDIT: I wasn't 100% correct, but this looks like what I was talking about: https://www.outsideonline.com/1924491/60-hours-hell-story-barkley-marathons https://www.outsideonline.com/1924491/60-hours-hell-story-ba... The actual count is 16 finishers and it is a 60 hour race so I am assuming it is done in legs.

The Barkley Marathons. It's a 60 hour race of 5 laps through an unmarked course in a Tennessee state park: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barkley_Marathons https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barkley_Marathons There is a good documentary about it called "The Barkley Marathons: The Race that Eats its Young" currently available on Amazon Prime streaming. There are also some smaller pieces on YouTube about some other years.
