I don’t really agree with an adult allowing a kid to do this, but I have to post because it is so amazing.

BHUBANESWAR, India (Reuters) – A four-year-old child, sold by his mother for less than $20, has been dubbed India’s “marathon boy” after he ran 65 km (40 miles) on Tuesday, but critics accused his coach of risking the boy’s health for cash.

Budhia Singh, dressed in a white T-shirt and red shorts, covered the distance in just seven hours and two minutes.
