A man from Fort Collins in Colorado ran and won the race for the second time. He completed the brutal 100 mile race in 15 hours, 6 minutes, and 44 seconds. His name is McDonald ... and yes ... he ran 100 miles!
6.6 mph average, not bad, considering that he no doubt had to stop a few times to drink and take a leak. In my college days, a guy (one of our teachers) ran between Lands End and John O'Groats, a distance of 874 miles. He also ran to and from college every day, about 30 miles each way. Some years later, the muscle tissue in his legs broke down when he stopped running. It led to septicemia and he died. He was Indian.
