There’s Marathons And Then There’s Eddie Izzard Marathon Marathons.

Eddie Izzard really wanted to do something nice for Nelson Mandela. Of course, golf clubs, a new watch, or the jelly of the month club aren’t going to cut it. Eddie has decided he will run 27 marathons in 27 consecutive days, one for each year Mandela was in prison. And to make it more fun, he’ll be doing most of it barefoot.
