Jedward partook in L.A.'s 27th Honda Marathon on Sunday, and they managed to complete the full 26.2 miles with no sleep in their eyes or food in their bellies.

Announcing their feat on Twitter, they posted this pic with the caption: "HEY CHECK OUT THE MEDALS WE GOT FOR THE LA MARATHON WE RAN OVER 26 Miles! FOR EVERYONE ON PLANETJEDWARD JEDWARD!"

In conjunction with no sleep, or food ("We had no breakfast cuz we ate last night! we where hungry it was like Hunger Games the Movie except with Jedward![sic]"), the twins also had virtually no training - apart from star kicking up a hurricane whenever in the presence of a camera. Much like they did at this Tara Reid related soiree they attended the day after their marathon.

All things taken into consideration, it really is a major achievement - to run a marathon in LA while dressed in stars 'n stripes bicycle shorts.

It just proves what an alcohol free lifestyle can do for you, along with an insatiable yearning to crack the States.

Dublin Marathon next year lads?
