He went balls-out on this stiff challenge.
A runner used the route-tracking app Strava to draw the largest ever GPS-mapped penis to raise money for men’s mental health issues.
The record-breaking 75-mile phallus was drawn in less than 24 hours by Terry Rosoman, 39, a marketing director from south Wales, during a trek through the Welsh mountains.
Rosoman got into offbeat fitness challenges for charity in 2013 after giving up an unhealthy lifestyle. @trosoman/InstagramHe has already raised more than $9,000 for the start of men’s charity month Movember — while trying to get a laugh out of like-minded men.
“That’s why it’s a big manhood because, especially for the target demographic that I’m aiming at, men never grow up,” he told North Wales Live.
“They find this stuff hilarious no matter how old they are. I don’t want to offend anyone with the shape, but it was just to get their attention.”
Rosoman’s circuitous route — which at times doubled back on itself to add anatomical detail — saw him ascend more than 9,250 feet.
“The elevation killed us. It was really tough. I’m just glad to get it done,” he confessed, adding that running in “pitch black” conditions for 12 hours — with visibility limited by thick mountain mist.
Terry Rosoman, 39, of south Wales, drew the record-setting GPS phallus in just under 24 hours using the fitness route-tracking app Strava. @trosoman/Instagram“It was … the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life. It was just a hard slog for 24 hours.”
Rosoman, who posed in tight Union Jack undies, was accompanied by his friend Robin Hurst for the cheeky charitable venture. It began Friday around 5 p.m. at the Abergavenny railway station, with the men returning to the same spot just before 4:30 p.m. the next day.

The grueling nearly 24-hour hike through the mountains started and ended at Abergavenny railway station.
“I didn’t sleep, I ran through the night, pitch black, I couldn’t see anything. We got lost loads of times,” Rosoman said after his grueling hike, according to the Guardian.
The fundraiser coincided with the start of this year’s Movember, a charity campaign started in 2003 where participants grew mustaches during November to raise money for men’s mental health issues like suicide prevention as well as prostate and testicular cancers.
Rosoman raised well over his goal of $6,500. @trosoman/InstagramBut Sunday afternoon, Rosoman had raised the equivalent of more than $9,000 — far more than his target of just under $6,500 — with what he called “a masterpiece that’d make even Picasso blush.”
