Running on a treadmill for 24 straight hours sounds more than a little mind-numbing, but when one Norwegian man did just that, he loved every minute of it.

Taranger was committed to the cause, but let바카라 게임 웹사이트s face it: Running indoors for 24 hours straight is always a tough battle with yourself.
바카라 게임 웹사이트You have to ,바카라 게임 웹사이트 he said.
The hardest part for him was hour 15 to 16, and hour 18 to 19. To hype himself up, he said he turned on rock music, bands like Yellowcard, the Foo Fighters, Nomy and his own band, Goldenboy. 바카라 게임 웹사이트I never quit, I always keep running until I바카라 게임 웹사이트m done.바카라 게임 웹사이트 he said.
The physical preparation for this run was the same as any other important ultrarace for Taranger: tapering in the last week, eating a lot of carbs and doing two sessions of training every day 바카라 게임 웹사이트 the second session of which was on a treadmill.
He said the biggest challenge was getting enough nutrition throughout his run during the event. Taranger fueled with carbs like cheese pizza and snacked on things like salty ham, salty candy and tomatoes 바카라 게임 웹사이트 and drank Coca-Cola.
In order to run his final distance of 264.52K, and beat the current record, Taranger said he put the treadmill at a 6.9 mph pace and stayed there throughout the duration.

A spokesperson for Guinness World Records confirmed in an email to Runner바카라 게임 웹사이트s World that Taranger바카라 게임 웹사이트s application to become the new record holder is under review.
바카라 게임 웹사이트The best part is all the people who came over to run with me, cheering with me and of course, the fundraising itself,바카라 게임 웹사이트 Taranger said. 바카라 게임 웹사이트The last hour was totally insane! What an epic hour that was, with people cheering and going crazy everywhere. It바카라 게임 웹사이트s hard to even describe the feeling.바카라 게임 웹사이트
