Pretty cool that a 12 year old has that much drive and mental fortitude, but it can't be a good idea to do 100 milers at that age.
They sure get them started early.
the only impressive thing here is how dumb the parents must be.
I would guess that running a marathon would be more stressful on this kid's body than walking 100 miles.
Impressive distance.
His pace was about 19:20/mile which is walking pace.
Impressive to stay awake walking for over 32 hours.
Pics make it look like a death march. No thanks!

In all fairness, he probably spent a lot of time resting, so his actual moving pace was probably a decent bit faster.
There isn't one picture of him actually running. He walked it, as documented.
