Did they have a truck next to them or something to get water from, or did they have to run to towns and stuff?

That sounds like a distance runner's wet dream.

Seriously, hot day, other people to talk with, and a backup film crew following you if anything goes wrong.

Sounds fun, but extremely hard.

Wow, that's amazing. I really admire people who can do stuff like that. I'm totally unmotivated, and I'd have probably quit after a day or two.
