http://www.eddieizzard.com/blog/view.php?Id=4Someone else mentioned this on another thread, but it deserves a thread all on its own. This is an amazing feat, and if he pulls it off it'll be remarkable. He's currently running through Birkenhead...

Good effort. I've never quite worked this guy out with all the dressing up and stuff. Does he bat for the other side or is it all for show/to get attention?

He's hetrosexual and enjoys cross dressing. I don't thinks it's for attention - i think he just enjoys wearing skits and nail varnish! |

i suppose you could walk it 3 mph for 10 hours a day  but I don't understand what they are doing about injuries, even minor little aches and pains, blisters or whatever that will get worse and worse if he keeps on running |

I'm sure he's not running that quickly at all, but he's done quite a few marathons already, sometimes on back-to-back days. It's got to get tougher though. |

I just can't believe it the way the challenge is written. It's such a massive attempt without any training of note. I think he had blisters after a couple of days. You could walk for ten hours at 3 miles an hour, but even that is pretty tough!! Mentally and physically. From what it says he is running though isn't he? |
