September 11, 20232 yr My daughter Bridget has been a runner all her life. She met her goal of running her 25th marathon by her 50th birthday. Lately she's been running ultras, 30 to 50 miles. She's training for her last marathon to be run on the 30th of this month. It will be her 60th to celebrate her 60th birthday in December. She is going to continue running but giving up the competition running. She says her body just can't take it any more. She began running with me when I was running to keep in shape for the national guard and she was in high school. She never stopped. Yeah, I'm a pretty proud dad. Noel The tires are worn. The shocks are shot. The steering is wobbly. But the engine still runs fine.

You definitely should be quite proud. Stan
September 12, 20232 yr I did 3 marathons back in the 80's, then hung it up. Too hard on my body. My sister in law did the marathon in every state thing. Way too much for me to even think about, i switched to cycling -- you can be competitive but save your knees. But kudos for your daughter. scott s. .
