The Speed Project er et berygtet og ikke-godkendt årligt løb fra LA til Las Vegas, der dækker omkring 500 km og noget barsk ørken terræn. Dets ry som en ekstrem udholdenhedsudfordring tiltrækker internationale ultraløbere, der konkurrerer i stafet-hold eller endda solo.

Our unstoppable Running Ambassador, Lydia Oldham, fearlessly tackled the challenge as a solo runner, repping the UK among just twenty-three other competitors. Equipped with the new Reebok FloatZig 1 running sneakers and supported by her dedicated RV crew and pacers, Lydia set off on her adventure.

Racing through the streets of LA and venturing onto the vast desert roads that stretch across California and into Nevada, Lydia pounded out relentless km through dawn, dusk and beyond, including an intense overnight and unsupported off-road run through the Mojave Desert.
