    When I learned of the arrival of a European to the local area, as I remembered it would have reached 12 years ago Jamel Balhi, Tony Mangan Only now “superman” shared with us his friendship and proved to be an “IRONMAN” for his pleasant temperate company with his huge strength of spirit to his 54 years Mangan, resistance he is an exceptional person, able to talk, drink water, take pictures, greet people, give directions, Sprint, and even eat almost without stopping for simplicity Mangan PROESA is so great guiness record an entire distance, but I only ran the half marathon with him, I still feel the thrill of being able to accompany you enjoy feeling the cool dawn that morning on the highway between the volcano and the limits to Jalisco. A salute to Colleague Julio Gutierrez Quezada, Green Angels, Civil Protection and the Federal Highway and above all a dear greet and embrace to the Good Tony “Superman” Mangan. Congratulations.

    Cuando Súpe de la llegada de un Européo a la Zona aledaña,Recordé como hace 12 años habría llegado Jamel Balhi, Solo que ahora Tony Mangan “superman”
    nos compartió su amistad y demostró ser un “IRONMAN” por su agradable compañia templada con su enorme fortaleza de espiritu¡¡

    a sus 54 años Mangan, és una persona excepciónalmente resistente, capaz de dialogar, beber, tomar fotos, saludar gente, dar instrucciones, sprintear y hasta comer sin casi detenerse¡¡

    La sencillez de Mangan para tan grande proésa es todo un guiness record de distancia, aunque solo corrimos con el el medio marathon, aún siento la emoción de haber podido acompañarle sintiendo el disfrute matutino de ésa fresco amanecer en la autopista entre el volcan y los limites con Jalisco.

    Un saludo al Colega Julio Gutierrez Quezada, Angeles Verdes, Protección Civil y Federal de Caminos y sobre todo Un entrañable saludo y abrazo al Buen Tony “Superman” Mangan.

    enhorabuena.

About Tony

I have always considered myself to be an average runner. In school, I was even bullied for I was a sports wimp. Through hard work, dedication, perseverance, self-belief and a strong mind I succeeded in not only running around the world but breaking four ultra running world records during my competitive career. Having previously cycled around the world I didn't start running until I was almost 30. Then I had a dream of running around the world. For many reasons, I waited for over 20 years. One reason was to establish my pedigree as an endurance athlete. I started and finished my world run as the current World Record-Holder for 48 Hours Indoor Track 426 kilometres (265 miles), a record I have held since 2007. I also broke and still hold the World Record for 48 hours on a Treadmill 405 kilometres (251 miles) in 2008. When I retired from competition, more pleasing than any of my world, European or Irish records I had the respect of my fellow athletes from all over the world - in my opinion, sports greatest reward - an achievement I am most proud of. Then I finally put myself out to pasture, to live my ultimate dream to run around the world! This blog was written on the road while I struggled to find places to sleep and to recover from running an average of 43.3 kilometres or 27 miles per day for 1,165 road days. There were many nights I typed this blog on a smart phone, so fatigued my eyes closed. Many journalists and endurance athletes have referred to my world run as the most difficult endurance challenge ever attempted. During my expedition I rarely had any support vehicles, running mostly with a backpack. In the more desolate areas I pushed my gear, food and water in a cart which I called Nirvana, then I sent her on ahead to run with my backpack once again over altitudes of almost 5,000 metres in the Andes. I stayed in remote villages where many people had never seen a white person before. I literally met the most wonderful people of this world in their own backyard and share many of those amazing experiences in this blog. My run around the world took 4 years. There were no short cuts, I ran every single metre on the road while seeking out the most comprehensive route across 41 countries, 5 continents, I used 50 pair of running shoes and my final footstep of the run was exactly 50,000 kilometres, (almost 31,000 miles) I eventually finished this tongue in cheek named world jog where I started, at the finish line of my city marathon. I started my global run with the Dublin Marathon on October 25th 2010 and finished with the Dublin Marathon on October 27th 2014 at 3 05pm! Thank you for your support, I hope you can share my unique way of seeing the world, the ultimate endurance challenge! Read more...
