Eddie Izzard - Running 1100 miles for charity

Okay okay… enough already about Chrissie’s coaching news!!.. Eddie is who we should be talking about!

Eddie Izzard, the “British European, who thinks like an American” comedian is currently running around Britain for charity (Sport Relief - www.sportrelief.com)

Five weeks before starting he was asked by the charity to do something sporty. In true Eddie style he is now running 1100 miles on bugger all training.
his plan is something like a marathon a day for 7 weeks / 6 days a week.

and he is doing really well… he is up to his 17th marathon in 19 days!!
he is a bit overweight and wears women’s clothes… and now is an ultramarathon runner!!

Inspirational stuff.

He truely is the best, now if he was doing it in heels, well then he’d be a god!

Way too cool…thanks for the link!!!

i can forgive the heels… but it is still weird not seeing him in make up.

One of my favorite comedians. I remember seeing him in Oceans 12 or whatever and thinking “so that’s what he looks like without make-up.” Good on him for doing that. I’m impressed.

No heels. He’s an ACTION Transvestite! (As opposed to “no, no no…WIERDO transvestite!”)

HAHA, I was about to correct Devlin. I need to brush up on my Izzard news, apparently.

He’s done some of the funniest stuff I’ve ever seen. “Do you have a flag?” “Cake or Death?”

Cake please
.

“This is not a game of who the fuck are you!”
.

I worship this guy. Smarter then me, better make up skills then me and runs around England. I suck, he rules.

Cake please
“I’m sorry, we’re out.”
“So my only choice is, ‘or death’?!?”
“Well, we only had 3 slices, we didn’t expect such a rush!”
“I’ll have the chicken”

My favorite-

“I am here to have sex with your wife and daughter”
“Go ahead, because of the debt of honor owed to General Lafayette…you do know you’re own history, yeah?..Noooooo!”

Or the crazy dog and the queen mum. Or babies on spikes. Or…ok, so I like it all, what can I say?

edited: I forgot the bit where he absolutely destroys a heckler that shouts “MOVE ON!” in the middle of his great escape bit…
