Dustin Hoffman Has Nothing on Them

...if you get the Marathon Man reference, I'll love you forever.

If not, you're still pretty cool, I guess.

Anyway, on to the reason I'm posting.

A group of ordinary people (turned runners) is trying to run seven marathons on seven continents in seven days. More than that, actually, as they will be running 30-mile "ultra-marathons", not the customary 26.2 miles.

Why?

To raise money for charities, including Isaac's House, an organization dedicated to helping the children of Uganda.

Keep up with the runners at their website -- they are currently on day three, and in LA, as of posting.

Shalom,
Drew
