Ultra runner Michael Versteeg sets record for completing the Arizona Trail in less than 16 days

The Arizona Trail is 800 miles of rugged path, through deserts, peaks and canyons. Some of the trail forces travelers to scramble or bushwhack through overgrown branches and bushes. But Michael Versteeg ran the trail, completing it in 15 days, to break the fastest known time of completion.
