While checking the news online last week sometime I noticed a video on CNN that looked interesting. The title of the link to the video was “50 marathons, 50 states, 50 days”. After reading Dean Karnazes’s book a few months ago (a review is coming soon) I knew about his Endurance 50 event and thought the video would be about him. Much to my surprise, it was not about Dean. Turns out a guy named Sam Thompson is also doing the same feat just a few months before Dean. When Sam was in Atlanta, Dean actually came and ran with Sam. Both are running to raise money for charities to go along with this amazing challenge. Sam finished his 50 about a week ago, but Dean starts his September 17th. I wonder if anyone has ever attempted the mountaineering 50 in 50 in 50? Now that would be even more amazing!
