I Want to Run a Marathon
Not gonna happen. But my daughter's SO is running his second 100 mile (not kilometer) race this weekend.
I was there for the first one and when he came across the finish line, he looked tired, but not as tired as I expected.
As I recall, he did it in about 17 hours. The most elite runners can do it in 12 hours, the least in 48 hours. An article by a man who has done it said his fitness monitor reported he'd used 11,000 calories.
