Eddie Izzard ’27 Marathon’ Marathon is Underway

When super fans of Eddie Izzard heard that he’s running 27 marathons in 27 days, they likely responded “yeah, that seems about right.” This isn’t the first time Izzard has accomplished an incredible athletic feat, in 2009 he completed 43 marathons in 51 days across the UK for Sport Relief, raising over £1.8m. Izzard has a bit of a Midas touch, whether it’s acting, writing, politics, or selling out enormous arenas for standup comedy (in 4 different languages btw), there’s nothing the guy can’t do.

12 Comedians With Real Style

We focus on everything comedy - and that includes comedy style. Not just their presence or their material, but the fashion sense they rock. Some comics build huge careers while never outgrowing 12-year-old outfits of hoodie, t-shirt, and jeans, and that's fine.

Here's a ranking of 12 comics with the best style.
