Since today is Veteran's Day I thought I'd post a cool story about a father (a 75 yo retired Marine) and son (44 yo) who ran 112-days and 3,330-miles from San Diego to Washington, D.C to raise money for wounded veterans (Tom and Warren Knoll's Freedom Run). Wow! And I whined about 13.1 miles!
Here's their stats:
Running the Numbers
3,300 Miles in Tom and Warren Knoll's Freedom Run
14 Total pairs of shoes they wore through
9 Number of hours their van driver stood in line to try out for Deal or No Deal to get publicity for the run (no deal)
$35,000 Money raised for the Challenged Athletes Foundation, the Wounded Warrior Project, and The Sunshine Foundation
How awesome is that? You can read the full story at Runner's World.
