While I'm over here moaning about running less than two miles, comedian Eddie Izzard just finished his 43rd marathon in 52 days.
And he did it with only six weeks of training.
ok-cleek
Man I had a dreadful flight
While I'm over here moaning about running less than two miles, comedian Eddie Izzard just finished his 43rd marathon in 52 days.
And he did it with only six weeks of training.
Amazing. And he wasn’t particularly fit to start with either!
This is an interesting read:

But I notice he didn’t do it in those stacked heels he favors.
Still, he is putting the action in “action transvestite” in a big way. Next up, jumping and climbing trees.
can’t believe he’s only raised 200K Pounds.
I don’t know how well publicized it’s been, this is the first I’ve heard of it. I’m an official fan on Facebook and all that, usually that kind of thing will get you some notifications after the 20th marathon or so…
I hadn’t heard about it until Monday and he completed his epic run on Tuesday. He needs to sack his agent and publicist.
