Ultra runner and former Guinness record holder, Stan Cottrell, founded the "friendship run" concept and was the first Caucasian in parts of China when he ran the "Great China-USA Friendship Run" in 1984 (again in 1985) - 2123 miles in 53 days, from the Great Wall to Guangzhou (full length film: "China Run" plus videos such as the insightful "Fire and Jade"). He has run 200,000+ miles in 38 countries and still has cartilage in his knees to embark on a forthcoming global run. Why not join him?
