Fiddy2
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fiddy2 was Dane Rauschenberg's quest to be the only person in the world to run one marathon every weekend in 2006 (52 marathons in total), with all the proceeds that he raises going to the organization L'Arche more directly the Mobile, Alabama chapter. Raising over $40,000 to date (March 2007), Rauschenberg continues to attempt raise $52,000 through his website Fiddy2.
While, Rauschenberg's attempt to run a marathon every weekend in one calendar year was the third successful attempt, it was far and away the fastest. With an overall marathon average of 3:21:16 Rauschenberg ran his fastest marathon of the year in his 42nd marathon of the year (2:59:48), which goes against conventional wisdom of marathoning.
