From the BBC...
A (49 yo) Belgian runner has set a new world record by completing 365 marathon races in a year.
Stefaan Engels, dubbed "Marathon Man", began his challenge in Belgium a year ago and has since run a marathon every day across seven countries. He crossed the finish line in the Spanish city of Barcelona after running 9,569 miles in a year.
Engels suffered from asthma as a child and had been told by doctors to avoid sport.
