3 athletes just finished running across the Sahara Desert. The whole thing. In 111 days, covering 4,000 plus miles. They AVERAGED about 2 marathons a day.Throughout the run, the runners have been stricken with tendinitis, severe diarrhea, cramping and knee injuries all while running through the intense heat and wind — often without a paved road in sight.
Wow. Sounds pretty fun. I love to run 40 miles a day while shitting my pants. Actually, there is not too many things on my list of "Super Fun Stuff" above that. Actually, only "Eating shards of glass while being set on fire" is the only thing ahead of "Running across the desert in 100 plus degree heat while shitting my pants with diarrhea." Invite me along for the next run, dudes. I am TOTALLY in. Now excuse me while I go eat a lot of greasy Chinese food, Mexican food, and laxatives and then go on a long run.
