    Ultra marathoner and how he does it

    I have read about people who really push themselves physically just to see how far their bodies will go. It’s amazing and not smart all at the same time in my opinion. The human body is an awesome machine, however, it’s not designed to do the same thing over and over again or for long periods of time. What this has done physically is definitely an accomplishment, but look at the price his body has paid for it. Anyone who knows me even mildly knows my love for physical fitness and exercise in all different shapes and forms. But the human body is not made for the extreme demands put on it by doing ultra marathons or biking or anything for long periods of time. Animals bodies also fall into this category. Just look at a race horse or a show jumping horse and you’ll see the same injuries the befall them. Look for yourself and tell me what you think.
