I'd give anything to see you run an ultramarathon in gardening boots. Maybe a flock of sheep follwing behind you? Great story!

What an amazing person he was. Thx for sharing his story. I sent this article to my son & his wife as they run daily and compete occasionally in marathons. In fact, they were up recently for the New Haven Road Race and have run in the Orange Rotary Turkey Trot.

Do you think Jeremy Clarkson will be the next farmer to compete in this 😂😂

Given he’s too large to fit in sports cars anymore and has smoked 750,000 cigarettes, I would pay to see it.

I remember this one, but enjoyed rereading. So… are you running in the ultramarathon this year?

I like to pull old postings from behind the paywall from time to time. Twelve pounds to go and I’ll be ready for an ambitious hiking program. My days of running are mostly over, unless I’m being chased by a bear or something.
