Talk about going for a run....

Some girl from here is going to run the Tour De France route. She said it's about 30 miles a day for 9 weeks.

Good luck to her. Those climbs are brutal.

That's an awesome goal. Best of luck to her.

"Such a “journey run,” as she calls it, is not foreign to Romano. In 2011, for 119 days, she ran alone across the United States — pushing a baby stroller. . . "

Potential jokes abound.


I'm calling BS on this as a publicity stunt for her boyfriend's documentary. There's not way she can run 30 miles of the TDF route every day without walking.

I just hope she doesn't get squished under a truck tire for her troubles like that soccer dude, but that would do wonders for the documentary.
