@gwl1983 It pains me to run, because i'm 14 and i'm 6'4'' so my bones are very thin and stretched, therefore being weaker. I can't even run 100m without my legs being in so much pain.

@EGarrett01 there have been many humans that have been far beyond the normal human range... everyone has one way or another to do these incredible things, ever since we became a super intelligent species we have been seceeding our natural strength and endurance.. its just a few times media decides to take a random look at one of them, and show them to the ignorant public. :|

Damn! He ran 100 miles to get to the marathon!

Much like Kadour Ziani, he's so far beyond the normal human range in his attribute of note that he should be studied by science, especially after he dies, like an autopsy.

It's not exactly true that his body "doesn't produce lactic acid" therefore he is somehow blessed to be able to run further than any other people. He monitors his heart rate carefully to keep lactic acid production down, and a study found that his body had adapted to using lactic acid as fuel. Train the body, it adapts. Also, there are better ultrarunners, like Scott Jurek, and people who have run further, like Stu Mittleman who has one record which still stands: 577.75 miles in 6 Days.

i was wattching stan lee super humans...can this guy really run forever
@pilantra2000 Dude, are you serious!? This guy has been running ultramarathons since around 1992, and yet you sit there and discredit him for what he says! Just because you don't understand what he is saying doesn't mean it's not true, so you should probably quit talkin!

I love running. I'm never happier than when I'm running.
