Eddie Iz Running

via Press Association
The infamous “do you have a flag” British comedian, Eddie Izzard, is at it again. He is bringing his shenanigans through Europe with his latest stand up routine “Stripped.” But he’s not just running from stage to stage, he is running from country to country for a cause and it’s called “Eddie Iz Running.”
While he may not be known for his athletic ability, the actor is running more than 1,000 miles in seven weeks to raise funds for Sport Relief. Sport Relief supports athletic endeavors to raise money for charity. They, in turn, support Comic Relief—a charity that helps impoverished people around the UK and around the world. He has been training by running 30 miles a day and has suffered some pretty serious blisters and booboos but is still going strong. He is running through four nations and representing the country he is in by carrying its flag on his run.
You can support Eddie by sponsoring his run. He even has an ice cream truck following him on his runs, giving out ice creams and asking for donations! And those 30 miles a day is more than a marathon length! He’s going to get in some serious shape or die trying. Go Eddie!
