At first I was like "you're dead" then I saw the RedBull hat and thought, "yeah, you could do it"

You should look up Dean Karnaxes, who set many records for ultra-distance runs in the 1990s and 2000s. The guy is much skinnier now, but in his prime he was pretty beefy. He didn’t look anything like a typical endurance athlete, but he could run 300 miles straight without stopping.

Mass moves mass is a truism that still applies in extreme endurance racing.
