The 56 year old french man Serge Girard has managed to run 27,011 kilometers or 16,784 miles in 365 days. With this he beat the old record holder Tirtha Kumar Phani from India who ran 22,582 kilometer in 2006. Serge Girard averaged around 74 kilometers a day and he didn't take any rest days. He crossed twenty five countries in Europe including The Netherlands. That's pretty impressive.

First things first, welcome to all who landed here at runningpoint.org. The site is obviously still in the early stages of development but I would like to use this post as a quick introduction to who we are and what we are about.

I'm a student living in the Netherlands and currently studying at Windesheim. I'm 25 years old and only started running last summer after a pretty bad accident. I pretty much made a complete lifestyle change last summer by eating healthier and stopping with smoking. So far its still going great. I kept running three times a week in the winter and still do now.
