The Legend of Cliff Young
The Legend of Cliff Young
A remarkable and inspiring story about a 61-year old Australian potato farmer who shocked the world when he won the 5-day 875-km (543.698miles) endurance racing from Sydney to Melbourne. He beat out the professional athletes and did so without training, mostly because he denied himself sleep and ran while the others rested. picked by 2manyusernames 8 months ago

This is a very impressive gentleman. More links at the wikipedia link in the description.

Is he well known in Australia? He should be a national hero. A really amazing man.
