The Marathon Man

Completing the London Marathon is tough enough, but imagine doing it having stepped straight off a plane that has carried you from the middle of the 5000 kilometre 鈥淩ace Across the USA鈥. Then imagine you need to complete the London Marathon as quickly as you can, because you have a flight back. After all you don鈥檛 want to lose your lead on the American leg of your marathon challenge!? Well wonder no more.

Welcome to the world of Rob Young, the "Marathon Man" who spoke to Caroline appropriately enough live during one of his marathons! All that and earlier this month he broke the world record for most marathons run in a year. 370!
