Runner Dan Karnazes of Ultramarathon Man fame is once again going for another running record. Recently his book 50/50 came out about his experience of running a marathon a day for 50 days (yeah thats a grand total of 1,310 miles) and today he starts a 48 hour treadmill run. You can see him running live here..
Oh yeah he has also run a 200 mile relay race solo, has completed a 350 mile run, moutain biked 24 hours straight, swam across San Francisco Bay, has completed the 100 mile western states endurance race 11 times under 24 hours yada yada...to say the least the guy is accomplished so 48 hours on a treadmill is probably a walk in the park for him.
I on the other hand get antsy after an hour on the treadmill so I will have to keep him in mind when I am running later this afternoon.

Or maybe he'll just go nuts from 48 hours of close-captioned television and kill everyone in attendence. Who really knows?
It would be really hilarious if some old man flung sweat on him at like the 12 hour mark and he flipped out and fell off the treadmill.
hahahaha, there is an empty treadmill right next to him so you never know....
it would also be a bit funny if someone from the gym came and told him that he'd exceed the allowed time for the machine.
