He's running nine minutes and then walking one minute. His average time per marathon is expected to be 5 hours, 30 minutes which is actually pretty lengthy even for a duffer. So he's trotting a bit.

On the other hand, even if you were hiking 42 km a day . . . that's a lot over a repeated time frame. It's just a lot of running period.

He's also doing a lot of it on the Cochrane marathon course which, I think, means running up out of that valley every day.

I bow in admiration in his general direction.
