Didn’t Eddie Izzard run 7 marathons in 7 days ? I’ve never really understood how playing two games of football a week is that difficult for a finely tuned athlete.I always think of tennis players and cyclists when I hear this. Two games at 90 mins running approximately 10k.
Compared with a tennis player who could play 4 hours per day and a tour cyclist who could ride 7 hours a day for 200 miles in gruelling heat up mountains.
Footballers are over pampered and if we keep telling they can’t play 180 minutes a week they will believe it.
edited, he actually ran 27 in 27 days in 2016 and recently ran 31 in 31 days.
