A friend of mine who really likes to challenge himself loves to run marathons. (yes, loves). BUT That's the not the crazy part.

He has run up to Pikes Peak and back (did that marathon this year) and lived to talked about it....but then just this weekend, he did the 24-The Hard Way which is a 24 hour running event to raise money for United Way! HE DID IT! He ran 100+ miles in 24 hours!

Unfortunately (according to his facebook status), he suffered from a stress fracture for the last T-W-E-N-T-Y miles and once the race was over he went into the ER. He started going into Kidney failure but was sent home to rest!

This morning his status reads that when he got up to move around this morning, he reached for his crutches and fell to the ground....hard.

We all thought he was crazy for wanting to do it, but you can't deny that's a pretty amazing accomplishment.
