Drinking 24 beers in 24h is something many people do and do not die from. I can appreciate people being worried about him but like someone else said: have faith in Nony he knows what he is getting into. Vomiting is not a disqualify-er. It'll probably make him feel better and clear up stomach space. Nothing wrong with that, vomiting is not being extremely sick. Continuing my training right now by having a drink and watching a stream. | ||

At an average length of 20 minutes, 12.5 hours. Let's hope he's not planning on going for a macro game every time, or this could be the stumbling block for the challenge. I'd recommend front-loading these, playing games when physically and mentally sharp. Running will take at least 2 hours. The challenge here will be the last few miles, fighting alcohol, donuts, and the toll a normal marathon takes on the body. Definitely possible, considering Tyler's history with running, and the fact that breaking it up into separate miles will give plenty of breathing time in between treadmill sessions. Drinking, 1 drink an hour shouldn't be too hard (on it's own). I think a guy's body can process alcohol about that fast, though there might be some drunkenness towards the end of the stream. Finish the running before the last 6-8 drinks and it should be OK! Donuts... Tasty at first, scary by the end. Highest potential for causing vomiting. That's a ton of sugar, which will screw with his body. Lots of calories too. I don't even Pullups. I'm about 2/262th of the way towards being able to do this part, so I'll leave it to others to judge the difficulty here. I'm guessing this is like the running, either you're in good enough shape to do it, or not. Again, finishing the physical challenges before the donuts and drinks push one's body well beyond comfort is probably a good idea? Good luck! Tons of potential for fan interaction btw, we can toast the hero on his journey and play along at home. um if he can run 26.2 miles in 2 hours he would not be playing starcraft as he would be the world record holder. If he can do it in under 4 hours i would be surprised. | ||

Plans have been laid by a mate and I to do a watered down half marathon version in late november. Quite excited :D edit: oh and I'd be very surprised if it took him over 4 hours. He was a runner in college. He may take it slow to conserve his energy for the other challenges however. | ||

He may take it slow to conserve his energy for the other challenges however. People are also forgetting that there's no requirement that the 26.2 miles be run in a single block. Assuming he's in good shape and running in shorter segments, there's no reason to think that finishing the run in 3-4 hours would be such an extreme problem. As long as he gets it out of the way before the alcohol accumulation starts to get too high. | ||
