The pensioner from Russia runs nearly 120 miles per day

In may of this year 82-year-old essentukami Alexander Kornilova vasyutina (pictured) at the Russian marathon "Day run" (which in 24 hours you need to run the maximum distance) achieved the almost impossible: covered a distance of 118 km 249 m — almost 120 km!

So many kilometres, and even in this old age, not ran no grandmother of our country. Was judges the result in a new record of Russia. And according to the organizers of the competition, Alexander Kornilova put still the European record.

It all began three years ago when grandma Sasha promised on their anniversary to overcome the distance as much as 120 kilometers. Then, at the championship of Ukraine on a daily run in the Vinnytsia retired vasyutina could reach 107 km 840 m! It would seem, to the intended hand.





But the next year there, in the winery, turned out to "only" 104 miles, and 214 m. it Seemed that the age takes its course and hope for the success of hopeless. But Alexander Kornilova so just from the goal did not back down and became even more practice.

The athlete has increased the daily mining run. Only occasionally in order to restore the body of Alexander Kornilova was limited to light marathons across the plain and ran, only 12-15 miles... And the result of hard training has become a new record!

By the way, for the day of the may competitions grandmother Sasha rested only two hours — and that's after 15 hours of continuous running! Such phenomenal abilities of the gifted in the sports person's attitude cannot fail to impress. Especially since the champion came out for his first run already at the retirement age after working 40 years for harmful metallurgical production. Has passed a way from crane bridge crane to the record-holder of Russia.
