Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) (AFP) – A Brazilian man with a penchant for sporting records breaks a new one after tackling the most boring physical challenge he could dream up: running on a treadmill for 24 hours. Pepe Fiamoncini runs 188 kilometers (116 miles) on a manual treadmill, which works without electricity, at an open-air gym on Rio de Janeiro’s Ipanema beach. Once validated by officials who watched the challenge via live stream, the feat will earn him a third Guinness World Record.
