Mind-boggling facts behind Spencer Matthews's record-breaking 30 desert marathons in 30 days...
Barely recognisable from his days as a reality TV star, Spencer Matthews made history on Tuesday when he broke the record for the most consecutive marathons run on sand.
Sleep deprived and scorched from the desert sun, with a newly shaved head and chiselled body barely recognisable from his hedonistic days as a reality television star, Spencer Matthews made history on Tuesday when he broke the world record for the most consecutive marathons run on sand. After an astonishing 30 in 30 days, running from Wadi Rum on the edge of the Arabian desert to near the Dead Sea in Jordan, the 36-year-old Made In Chelsea star turned entrepreneur was met by model and presenter wife Vogue Williams, 38, and the eldest two of their three children, Theodore, five, and Gigi, three – they also have a two-year-old named Otto. He's sent support from friends and celebrities who've completed similarly bonkers endeavours, including fellow adventurer Bear Grylls, who tells him to N.G.U (never give up) and Russ Cook – aka the Hardest Geezer – who earlier this year became the first person to run the full length of Africa.
