This is more of a HTF* story.

Eddie Izzard Runs 43 Marathons in 7 Weeks

* How the Fu ck?

I mean, I was in awe of Lani after she finished one marathon, for crying out loud.

Lani's done more than one marathon. And I think it was more impressive that I finished a marathon (and I did it without crying).

Lani has a co-worker who is an ultra-marathoner. He runs 40+ miles every Wednesday. His laid-back runs are 20+ miles and he runs almost every day. I woudn't have guessed Eddie Izzard was capable of it but if you're blessed with knees and feet that can take the abuse, once you can run one easily you can pretty much run one every day if you're not going all out for speed.

I get bored after 5 minutes of running. That's why I'd never do a marathon.

yeah, that's the ticket.

I think the ultra-marathoners are crazy. My dad's cousin ran a marathon 8 1/2 months pregnant- with her doc's ok.

I drive at least one marathon almost every day
