Coast Guard Rescues Man Running Ocean in Bubble

We often hear of crazy challenges, ultra-distance runs, and epic challenges. Most of us have had to DNF during a race. But this one is perhaps the most spectacular!

Reza Baluchi, a marathon runner decided to attempt a challenge way beyond anything attempted before: 1,033 miles in a ‘bubble’, running from Florida to Bermuda, with only protein bars and water for fuel.

Not surprisingly, it went balls-up (pun intended) and had to be rescued by a US Coast Guard.

Comical. You can read the full story here: Daily Mail
