Bob Bundschuh

Middle aged, middle class, middle of the United States, balding guy...."How boring is that?", says Bob. He says he came to the realisation years ago that he would never be the fastest runner, and he's ok with that. He might be able to shave some time off with more dedicated training, more time doing speedwork, more miles, etc, but would he really enjoy it as much? Instead of the fast path, he has chosen the fun path. He has run a marathon on every continent (Asia, N America and Antarctica twice) and has made countless new friends from all over the world. Along the way he has got to run on the Great Wall of China, stand surrounded by penguins, be woken up by a lion's roar at 2am while realising he's sleeping in only a canvas tent, stare at billions of stars from deep in the New Zealand outback, drink some of the finest beer in Prague and watch the sun set over the Himalayas. And now the next adventure...
