OT - Because it's there? (and there? and there?)

"NEW YORK -- Two British adventurers accomplished what seems impossible. They ran seven marathons in seven days on six continents, finishing up in New York on Sunday. Sir Ranulph Fiennes and longtime expedition partner Mike Stroud crossed the New York City Marathon finish line in 5 hours, 25 minutes, 46 seconds, ending their weeklong journey. They had arrived in New York late Saturday night after completing an overnight marathon past Egypt's ancient pyramids and through empty Cairo streets. "We're the sort of people that like a challenge," Stroud said. "Instead of we can't, we say, 'Why can't we?"' In all, the pair ran 183 miles and had about 45,000 miles of air and ground travel." |

Maybe they will get laid 7 times in 7 days, on 6 continents.
