Runner completes 100 marathons in 100 days

Chinese ultramarathon runner Chen Penbin, 37, successfully achieved his goal of running a full marathon every day for 100 days.

The journey - exactly 4,219.54 kilometers from China's south Guangdong province to Beijing - was completed on Tuesday.

"I am so encouraged that many people joined me in the run. On the micro blog and WeChat, I saw lots of people who never ran before trying to follow my steps," Chen said.
