BBC NEWS | UK | Magazine | Run, Izzard, run and run again
How did the less than athletic comic pull off such a feat of endurance?
Running into London’s Trafalgar Square on Tuesday, Eddie Izzard took the last of 1.6m steps, from the 43 marathons he has completed in 51 days.
He has run at least 27 miles a day, six days a week, over the past seven weeks, covering more than 1,110 miles of England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland.
An ”exhausted” Eddie Izzard runs through the finishing line
The aim - to raise what he calls, in classic whimsical Izzard style, “billions” for charity Sport Relief.
