David Goggins: Not your usual runner
This guy is totally awesome.
His first triathlon? Ultraman. Everyone knows what is an ironman. Ultraman is just more distance (10 km swim, 421 km cycle, and 84km run).
And he also won 3rd placing in Badwater 2007.
You can listen to an interview from him here:

Kenyan Runners: Chasing KIMbia
ChasingKimbia is about kenyan runners. You can check out their site at www.chasingkimbia.com . In Malaysia, their sight can truly scare out any local runners. With their fast stride speed and length, they could easily outrun the fastest runners in Malaysia. 9 out of 10 winners in KLIM 2007 were kenyans.
However, the notion that they are unbeatable is false. Marilson Gomes dos Santos became the winner for New York ING 2006 marathon with a time of 2:09:58. He's a brazillian, and nobody guessed that he could have won.

Marilson Gomes dos Santos crossing the finishing line...

Defending champion Paul Tergat, center, of Kenya crossed the finish line third in the men's division. He finished behind Gomes dos Santos and another Kenyan, Stephen Kiogora.
For those who have normal physique who seldom runs...take a look at this guy. Run guys...run....

Kurt Fearnley of Australia crossed the finish line to win the Men's Wheelchair division of the 2006 New York City Marathon.
