Thanks to Warrick who alerted me to this article.
"How one bearded, bespectacled, determined runner has enjoyed fifty-plus fulfilling years of his favorite sport...And how you can, too."
Gosh there are two of us. And we have both been running for 50 years+.
"From Doc I learned that there's little point in running once or twice (or one or two years; or one or two decades), and then quitting. Real runners stick it out, because sticking it out is the value proposition. We learn little from hitting one finish line; we absorb much from a lifetime journey. On my 50-year journey, I've found that the secrets of lifetime running are simple, as Doc promised, yet profound and far-reaching. I hope you'll find them useful, too." - Amby Burfoot.
