The fastest marathon distance run on a ship (male) is 2 hr 52 min 47 sec, and was achieved by Shane Wood (Australia), in Sydney, Australia, on 30 December 2024.

Shane attempted the record onboard a Royal Caribbean cruise sailing between Australia and New Zealand.

He began running at age 45 after being inspired by someone in their 80's who had emphasised the importance of remaining active. He started by walking for fitness, which slowly turned into running and has since become a profound passion.
