Dean Karnazes - Endurance by DuncanSharpFilms
The North Face Endurance Athlete.The North Face Endurance 50, also known as the 50/50/50, was fifty marathons in fifty states in fifty consecutive days, beginning with the Lewis and Clark Marathon in St. Louis on September 17, 2006, and finishing with the New York City Marathon on November 5th. Eight of the fifty races were official marathons. Since marathon races are typically held only on Saturdays and Sundays, on the other days Karnazes ran the courses of established marathons, but ran them unofficially. (For example, as part of the Endurance 50, Karnazes ran the course of the Boston Marathon, but not the race itself, which is held in mid-April.)Running feats:128.75 miles in 24 hours on treadmill in NY (2007)350 miles in 80 hours and 44 minutes without stopping (2005)[8]North Face Endurance 50: fifty marathons in fifty U.S. states in fifty consecutive daysinaugural South Pole Marathon in running shoes148 miles in 24 hours on a treadmill (2004)[9]single-handedly completed the 199 mile Providian Saturn Relay six times1000-Mile/10 Day Buckleholder at the Western States Endurance Run[10] (i.e., better than ten twenty-four hour finishes.
