His son ( my cousin) joined him for the last 20 miles, when I go up there for holidays to visit these 2 will come strolling in as everyone is waking up.... Just a daily 15 mile run!!

What place is he in? My dad was talking about a race they run from Baton Rouge to New Orleans that sounds insane.

That's freaking insane! The furthest I can run is to the ice chest...... And on a good day maybe back!

Those ultramarathon guys are impressive. I have a book about Scott Jurek (one of the top ultramarathon runners) and it is amazing what those guys do.
