50 Marathons in 50 Days

SuperHornet's Athletics Hall of Fame includes Jacksonville State kicker Ashley Martin, the first girl to score in a Division I football game. She kicked 3 PATs in a 2001 game for J-State.

The link was taking forever to load so if that's the Eddie Izzard thing my apologies but if not he did something similar a couple years back and he's a show biz guy by trade not necessarily a marathoner.Grizalltheway wrote:Eh, he's already been beat to the punch:Screamin_Eagle174 wrote:Good luck to the guy, but I seriously doubt he'll be able to do it.
