Alex Page, an American travel influencer, ran a marathon in North Korea in July 2025. He had to navigate complex travel regulations and challenges to participate in the event. Page's experience was marked by the excitement of being part of a sporting event in a country that had been off-limits to visitors for years. Despite the risks, including the possibility of arrest or detention, Page's determination to complete the marathon led to a unique and memorable experience
