The 100-mile man

Greenville’s Ben VanHoose completes 100-mile ultra marathon in California

In 1988, The Proclaimers told the world, “I would walk 500-miles and I would walk 500 more just to be the man who walks a thousand miles to fall down at your door.”

While great musically, the distance is unfathomable for most humans.

One tenth of that distance, however, was possible for Greenville ultra marathoner Ben VanHoose to complete at the Western States 100 Endurance Run on June 22 and 23.
