A 26-year-old Toronto man is juggling a soccer ball with his feet between Toronto and Niagara Falls and is currently over half-way through the challenge.
Ronnie Bodik spent last year recovering from two knee surgeries, so to keep himself focused he challenged himself by walking from the CN Tower in Toronto to the lookout at Niagara Falls, while juggling a soccer ball.
That distance covers approximately 140 kilometers, which the 26-year-old has given himself seven days to complete the journey.
Bodik started his challenge Wednesday at 4 a.m., and covered over 85 kilometers as of Sunday.
Bodik says the ball has fallen off a foot a few times, but that is not the point as they take a quick break to reset and continue on their way.

The original plan was to complete the journey in five days, but the journey proved more difficult than he thought — leaving him exhausted, vomiting, but determined.
The former soccer player was looking for a way to provide others with inspiration to overcome their own challenges and even learn about themselves.
“I’ve been asked a lot, like, ‘why are you doing this’?,” said Bodik. “I wanted to show that you could honestly do anything you really set your mind to.”
Bodik also shared that the public has been great at providing food and water along the journey.
The team is also putting together a documentary on the challenge.
