It doesn't mention Kouros, therefore it fails. It mentions Geb, but gets his time wrong (come *on* guys, there's a photo right there with the time). I'm not sure why a backwards marathon particularly qualifies nor am I sure why running a mile every day for 40 years is an endurance feat rather than a durability feat.
I'll take the Sahara Desert run, though. That's legit. Other than that, not so much.
Sure he deserves some of the crap he gets here but that IS a pretty impressive endurance feat.
#4 is a cop-out. 7 marathons on 7 continents. bullshit. chile and the falkland islands are both part of south america. they cant claim this until they run a marathon on antarctica.
The World Cup! It's Unwatchable!
I would say that 350 mile run is probably among the top 70,000 running feats ever.
Cliff Young winning the Australian ultra(Sidney to Melbourne) in work boots and overalls belongs on this list.
