Can't watch right now. Is this about that sheep herder who won some long ass endurance race in Australia? Dude just shuffled the whole time and passed everyone up when they were sleeping??

Cliff Young - an Australian farmer who won a 500+ mile endurance race when he was 61 years old. He was the oldest and slowest of all the competitors, but everyone else in the race would run for 18 hours and then sleep for 6. Cliff didn't stop and he passed everyone up while they were sleeping. He won the race - 10 hours ahead of the 2nd place finisher.

He ran the 544 miles from Sydney to Melbourne in 5 days, 15 hours and 4 minutes.
