The thing is - GNRT people train for that - a 13.1 mile run to South Tyneside in average autumn temperatures. This lad did, as ACS said, 3000 miles recently (30 miles per day) because he specifically built up his body and trained to complete that. This is also what he is doing now - you're 100% right, the Ethiopian athletes couldn't complete it because they are conditioned for their specific sport - Ussain Bolt couldn't run a marathon when he trains for the 100 metres - BECAUSE HE SPECIFICALLY TRAINS HIS BODY TO RUN 100 METERS AT IT'S FASTEST. You know absolutely nothing about training for events and running - I am a runner and I run average 20 miles per week (in four or 5 short runs) and that is my regime for training - You only mock because this lad is a geordie - I know for a fact if the show was called "Run Mackem Run" you'd be saying "He doesn't look capable but good luck to the lad" http://northernrunningguide.com/search/run geordie run
Why reason with a prick who just puts his fingers in his ears rather than listen to reason? Blinding ignorance does mislead us. O! Wretched mortals, open your eyes! This knacker has wum threads all over the first page. Have you got nowt better to do than argue the toss with this bellend? Just ignore him.
Good luck to him, even if he is a fat geordie **** as nmg would say. I have a lot more respect for him, even to try such a massive feat, than i have for some scrawny little ****ebag typing ****e threads like this. NMG you are a ****ing disgrace, even if he doesn't make it, at least he's tried. Now ****.
