Footprints



I did some math. I've been running for 36 years and figure I've averaged about 30 miles a week over that span. That's 56,160 miles logged. The circumference of the earth at the equator is 24,901.55 miles. So I'm about twice around the world.

This blog intends to share some of the places I've run. And as I like to hike, you'll get some of that, too.

If you didn't know, the photo is of Bill Rodgers on Staten Island just before the start of the 1979 New York Marathon. Bill was the world's No. 1 ranked marathoner that year.
