Crap some one will find that thread name offensive.

It's "Biatch" which shouldn't be offensive to women or Ralph20

Good for her to try to raise the money, but there is no way in hell she even makes it a week.

I wonder if like almost every charity less than about 5% of money donated actually gets to the intended recipients...

Charities are a scam.

The point is, ladies and gentleman, that speed, for lack of a better word, is good. Speed is right, Speed works. Speed clarifies, cuts through, and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit.

It's not sexist. But even if it was, it's still funny to anyone who isn't overly sensitive and has a sense of humor

I don't understand the whole rationale for the ordering of the circles. Seems to me bike thieves are the worst, except for OJ who deserves his own private circle in whichever is the worst circle.

There's no real rationale, it's just the order I made them up

Hell is an individual thing; this is my view, yours may be different

Nice! Backed off her claim before even starting. Smart move. Wonder what “to where I’ll continue on” means? Still planning on doing them consecutively after? The fact that she just now realized getting from Haiti to anywhere is logistically difficult makes me wonder if she’s even planned out the rest of the trip. Or, is she planning on really trying to just wing it day by day.

The original article said she ran 230 miles in 72 hrs.... did anyone figure out if that was treadmill, track, road or trail? Don't have time to read all 790 posts in this thread.

It won't be surprising if she throws in rest days whenever she feels the need but still keeps saying 50 Ironmans in 50 days

Yeah but she defines "days" and "in a row" and "Ironman" differently than you so who are you to judge?

P.S - Remember, she's doing this for the children.

I think it was around Haiti. I briefly tried to find any sort of confirmation that it was actually done, but I found nothing. Just articles and social media posts that she did it and isn't she awesome. Her Strava account starts after that I believe, so no gps data. This is the video she did about it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-xLayUjQD0

On another subject, here is a video of a 100 mile ride she did in India to raise money for kids. It appears at one point she just fell for no apparent reason...

Here's another video of her running in Haiti, advertising her run training program. I think this is 10 months or so after the 230 mile run.

I like her running quote “a movement not taught, but learned”. Um, she may want to learn prior to 8/12.

She “runs” like every other overly muscled roid monster I’ve ever seen try to “run”.

I don’t think she makes it past day 3.
