That's the number of days in a row Ron Hill (age 71) has run, and he's still going. (He's in the Nov. issue of Runner's World.) I had a streak of 64 days in a row that ended last month. If I wanted to take a crack at Ron Hill's streak, I'd have to run for the next 44+ years without taking a day off. I think I'll pass. He started his streak on December 20, 1964.
In the same issue of Runner's World, there is a guy named Ed Whitlock who ran a marathon in 2:54:49, at age 73!!! And he broke 3 hours again at age 74! I'll be happy if I can FINISH a marathon at that age.
