| Fitness Statement | Began running at the age of 56 in 2008. My best year was at age 59, and I did okay until age 63. Since then I've been getting slower each year. I figure I'll keep going until the wheels fall off, or at least until an injury or sickness puts me on the sidelines. |
| Quote | “You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.” |
| Running Achievements | Ran 121 half marathons from age 57 to 70, with 119 in a row under 2 hours.
Finished Top 10 in age group in Brooklyn Half Marathon all three years of running it. Senior Grandmasters champ of Knoxville Half Marathon in 2013, 2014, and 2015.
