Ultrarunning Jumps The Shark With Madonna Tabloid Mention

When has ultrarunning gone too far in the mainstream? When it becomes tabloid material.

saw the story first - "Madonna Prepares for Ultra Marathon", a tabloid citing that she will be toeing the line at the grueling six-day Marathon des Sables. But her publicists soon issued a statement of their own to rule it out.

Either the tabloids are seriously devoid of material ("jumping the shark"), or the PR team at MdS are geniuses.
