A resident of Great Britain ran a super marathon in the courtyard of his own house
The quarantine did not allow this year to hold many events, including the six-day Marathon des Sables super marathon in the Sahara desert. But the pandemic did not stop a British resident Kevin Webber from running 230 km right in the backyard of his house.
To overcome the distance of 230 km, the Briton needed six days, a supply of liquid and food. The venue was his backyard, writes Metro.
The Marathon des Sables (Sand Marathon) in the Sahara Desert, Morocco, is considered one of the toughest competitions to test human endurance. Kevin Webber before this year four times participated in the race, but in 2020 he, like most participants, was prevented by coronavirus.
The runner used his back yard to race. In six days he made 2734 circles there.
The man decided to go jogging for a reason. After he was diagnosed with prostate cancer five years ago, he began to raise funds to organize Prostate Cancer UK. Overcoming thousands of kilometers, Kevin Webber is trying to raise people's awareness of this disease.
“Every eighth man in the UK gets prostate cancer, every 45 minutes oncology takes one life. I hope that you, like me, understand why it is so important to take this disease under control, to save men from my fate,” said Webber.
A unique way of staying at self-isolation was invented by four women employees of the zoo in Cornwall , England. They left to wait for quarantine with animals in order to take care of them.
