Eddie Izzards new show "Marathon Man". Eddie Izzard is an actor, comedian and part-time transvestite, but no one thought he was much of an athlete. Until he decided to go for a run - a very, very long run. This three-part documentary series follows Eddie rising to the challenge for Sport Relief and running an astonishing 43 marathons in 51 days. Covering 1166 brutal miles around the United Kingdom he runs a marathon a day, six days a week for eight weeks. Professional athletes would struggle with this task, but for Eddie, an out-of-shape 47 year old, it seems impossible. He had never run a timed marathon before and gives himself just over five weeks to train.
