Morne Basson recently finished a crazy event where he ran 72 half marathons on a treadmill in 72 days to better a Guinness World Record, while raising awareness for people suffering from Motor Neuron Disease.
When Basson unexpectedly lost his fiancée last year, he wanted to do something in her honour. Supporting Motor Neuron Disease sufferers was a cause close to his heart, so he decided he would attempt to run 72 half marathons in 72 days.
