What's the point?  Running is to push yourself, to test your limits, or to get in shape.  Clearly, this guy's limits are so far out, there's no need to push them.
If you can run for 3 days straight, its not about the running anymore, now its just about being able to stay awake that long.

That is how he tests his limits.  As he has said, he would love to try to for 500 miles, but it will take a far better runner than him.  For him that is his limit. It's not just the staying awake part.

Fau, you're right about his run.  Insane.

A far better runner than him??  I guess 350 miles in a row just doesn't cut it around here.  Freaking amateurs...

This guy could probably get anyone he wants.  The dude has less than 5% body fat. 
If Buddha boy wasn't in the picture could he...... ahh, nevermind.  T'ain't none of our bidness!   Tongue

I think Ultramarathon Man's standards are far higher than that.

DID SOMEONE SAY 350 MILES?? ARE YOU F'ING KIDDING ME???

This is what 350 Miles Looks like:



Miami, FL to Jacksonville, FL
Total Est. Distance: 350.84 miles
And the worst part about that run is, after you're finished, you're in Jacksonville.

I think we're all in agreement here that Jacksonville is a dump of a town.
