Brian Casey

BRIAN CASEY’S STREAK HITS 40 YEARS

Let the record show that at 5:48am on May 9, 2017 I officially reached the 40 year mark of my running streak.

I humbly moved into the Legend category of the USRSA.

Unlike many of the Runners in the USRSA, I do not have an impressive running background or portfolio.

3 I was never part of a Track or Cross Country team, never won a race, never posted a great time.

I just ran….for 40 years.

When I was asked to send an article to the USRSA, I was going to keep it very short.

“40 years completed…still running”……

But, as I thought about it, that would not be fair.

It would not be fair to all the people that my running streak touched over 4 decades. While I ran mostly by myself – I was never alone. I have a great wife and 4 children (now adults) who were always supportive. In fact, my Streak would have ended in May of ’84 had my wife (Fiancé at the time) not laced my sneakers when I had a back problem.

Although running was “my deal” and something that “Dad did,” I am now keenly aware that my running streak was not unnoticed. It was not anonymous. In this day of instant everything there is something good about commitment. It is a good thing to persist, grind, work through the tough times. Adversity reveals character. I believe that is the lasting story of my accomplishment.

I received some congratulations today and it brought back some funny and sad stories that 40 years offer.

• Being escorted home by the local police as I went for a run in the middle of a 36 inch Blizzard. • Youthful bet of running from Bergen County NJ to Belmar at the Jersey shore. • September 11, 2001 – running home from my office in NYC because the Bridges and Tunnels were closed.

To my wife Kathy – Thank you for being there through it all.

To my children Jennifer, Shannon, Ryan and Sean – you have never known a day that I did not run. Thank you for being patient.

To the USRSA – Thank you for letting me join the Club!

Cumulative Mileage 90,228.1.

Tim Woodbridge

TIM WOODBRIDGE’S STREAK HITS 39 YEARS By: Tim Woodbridge Allentown, Pennsylvania

Thanks for the 39th anniversary wishes from the USRSA! Always look forward to that each year – as well as the chance to write about some of the events of the last year!

I was really sorry to hear about breaking his streak – it makes you appreciate your own streak as you see those ahead of you sometimes have to stop. My comment always used to be when people asked “will it bother you to break your streak?” – I would immediately say – “nope – because they will be closing the lid on my casket – so I really won’t care at that point…” Well, the last few years as several of the guys that I have known for a long time – had to say they just couldn’t keep going – you realize that the “streak” isn’t necessarily up to you! That said – as I read about the Mark Covert and Ron Hill of our group – you do come to that realization – that you were blessed to be able to do what you did – for as long as you did – and really just enjoy the accomplishment!

5 I have to admit – I really enjoy the Facebook page and all of the new runners that are starting up their streaks; hitting that 1st year; earning their comma’s; etc. – It just makes you smile and root for everyone – not that it is for everyone – but it is a very inspiring thing!

I have mentioned that last couple of years – I’ve had to “re-behave” in terms of training regimen due to some arthritis in my knees! So only ran 810 miles this last year (total streak miles of 78,437) – but spent almost 3000 minutes in the running pool at my gym (30 meter pool with 4 ft. of water with 8 lanes to run laps in). Not a real exciting workout - but this type of training still allows me to get out and run a few races…

I joined a “Bootcamp” Group, which meets on Saturdays at 6 a.m. – did it as a bit of a challenge (the director wanted an “old guy” to join the group… that comment hurt a bit tho!) - as the director has a bunch of 30-40 year olds complaining about the workouts – he figured if I could just finish – they’d have to shut up… So I went – and I did finish the course that morning – just barely though… (I actually asked my wife if she could brush my teeth the next morning as I couldn’t lift the toothbrush…) I’ve been doing this now for 3 months – and I do have to modify some parts of the workout – but I have to admit – it has been a real good addition to my workout even though there is very little running… We all have nick-names and avatars – so naturally mine is “Streaker”… Haven’t done upper body or core workouts in 30 years – highly recommend it – assuming you have an director than understands jumping over fences etc. may look a little different the way you do it!

While I don’t run it anymore (30 times was enough…) - I continue to be involved in with the (the Elite Runners Fluid Stations), and makes me still feel very much a part of the race. I have joked that getting up at 4 a.m. - setting up 8 fluid stations over 22 miles of the course – then tearing down and dropping off the BAA vehicles back in Hopkinton at around 4 p.m. – it might be easier to run… So this year I had my Fitbit on – and I logged over 11 miles of running as a part of what I do that day – so I am thinking maybe I should take it easy this year and start running it again!

I did my birthday “run” again this year… the pool at the gym had a swim meet – so I bagged the one mile swim, biked 47, and then ran 12… This year will be 60 – so looking forward to that!

Always appreciate getting the newsletter and catching up with all the different streak anniversaries! So keep up the great work – and keep on running! ______

[Editors note: As we celebrate Tim Woodbridge’s 39th streak anniversary and birthday runs, I sought a quote from comedian Jack Benny. “Happy 39th Birthday to Jack Benny!” became one of the best running gags on the Jack Benny Show, celebrating Benny's perpetual 39th birthday. By the time of Jack Benny's death in 1974, he celebrated his 39th birthday 41 times. Newspapers across the country announced Jack Benny's death with the headline "Jack Benny Dies at Age 39."]

Ronald Kmiec

The Boston Marathon Quarter Century Club By: Ronald Kmiec

USRSA streakers are not the only OCD runners out there. My longest-lived USRSA streak began on 11/28/75 and ended due to a heart attack on 11/26/2007, just 1 day short of 32 years. I’m now 9 1/2 years into my new streak. The same mindset that USRSA “streakers” possess in abundance, also motivates those runners who love the familiarity of a particular race. I would venture that the Boston Marathon is the Everest of all marathons, and to run it is the goal of most marathoners.

I ran my first Boston Marathon in 1974, six years out of the Army, and startled by the chance sighting, while traffic was stopped on Mass. Ave., of a fellow Artist Diploma student finishing the 1972 race in 2:45 when we were both at the New England Conservatory of Music. That inspiration led to what has now become another obsession/motivation for me to the point of completing 44 consecutive Boston Marathons.

7 It was a short newspaper article in 1991 about Neil Weygandt, who had just completed his 25th consecutive Boston finish that intrigued me, and that began my commitment, with 18 under my belt, to make this an annual rite of spring for as long as I could keep running. Neil & I had run in a number of Ultra races during the 70’s, and in 1999 (his 33rd, my 26th) he joined up with me by Boston College after cresting Heartbreak Hill and noticing my name and Boston Stats on my shirt. We decided to run the last 5 miles together, tying at the finish line.

In the Program Book there was a feature article about ’s Boston career, a listing of his 58 finishes, and the 16 runners identified to that point who had equaled or surpassed Johnny’s string of 24 consecutive Boston finishes. I decided to form what has now evolved into the current Quarter Century Club. My original concept was to be known as the “Johnny Kelley Club,” listing those who had met his 24 consecutive finish threshold. The BAA wasn’t receptive to us using his name, so the metamorphosis into the “Quarter Century” standard was established. With the eventual cooperation and assistance of the BAA, more runners who met that criterion were identified, and the current membership now stands at 120 men and 9 women.

I formed the QCC because I believed the hundreds of thousands of runners who invest so much of themselves in this holy grail of marathoning without the prospect of winning it should have a goal that all can achieve if they persist. The QCC embodies the true spirit of the Boston Marathon, and there is a palpable excitement I sense from within the ever- increasing "crop" of new members we gain each year for whom inclusion in the QCC was a motivating factor.

While the BAA recognizes and publishes only the current Active Streak Listing, I have always maintained the "Retired" Listing to never let those who have achieved so much simply drift off to oblivion...once a QCC member, always a QCC member.

It is only fitting that the QCC has been granted special perquisites by the BAA after years of my persistent advocacy. The members symbolize the epitome of what a Boston Marathoner strives for, year after year after year. The membership includes the likes of Ben Beach, the first person to ever put together an unbroken string of 50 consecutive Boston finishes, 14 who have 40 or more consecutive finishes, another 5 with 40+cumulative finishes, and Andy Kotulski who has finished 652 marathons in 85 countries!

While there are a few QCC members among the USRSA membership, I’m hoping more of the USRSA marathoners continue their Boston streaks and are motivated to attain that 25-year threshold to join us. I’d love to hear from those USRSA members who have a Boston streak in progress how close they are to 25. Mark Washburne, having completed his 13th consecutive Boston, only has to hold on another 12 years!

8 DAVE MCGILLIVRAY ON QUARTER CENTURY CLUB

At the request of SRI/USRSA, the following is from the race director of the Boston Marathon, Dave McGillivray, who is currently ranked 3rd on the Quarter Century Club list with 45 consecutive Boston Marathon finishes:

“Those who have run a bunch of Boston Marathons in a row share a special bond. The race is now 121 years old and many of these folks have run close to a third of them and most a quarter of them. That’s pretty amazing. Just to be in the same place on the same day for more than 25 consecutive years is rare and then to add a marathon to the mix makes it even more remarkable. It’s a personal honor to share this unique comradery with all these folks. And, much of the credit goes to Ron Kmiec, himself a member in distinction of the club as it was Ron who took action and brought attention to the extraordinary accomplishments of these incredible runners. They all are now deeply engrained in the history and tradition of the most prestigious marathon in the world.”

The Quarter Century Club of the Boston Marathon

The Quarter Century Club was formed by Ronald Kmiec in 2001 to honor the achievements of John A. Kelly, the one person who most embodied the spirit of the quintessential Boston Marathoner, and to identify all those runners who had completed at least 24 consecutive Bostons, which was the most Johnny had completed. Sixteen were identified at that time, and the BAA began listing those with active streaks in its press releases and Results Books. The QCC became an official USATF Club, and has evolved into an association of those who have finished 25 or more Boston Marathons as official, numbered runners. The BAA currently lists only those with active streaks, but the QCC continues to recognize all those with current or retired streaks including cumulative finishes of 25 or more. QCC members meet only once each year, during Marathon weekend in Boston and along the course on Marathon day, and many communicate with each other throughout the year. A few statistics: the 129 members of the QCC (including 9 women) have a total of 4,204 Boston finishes among them, and come from 30 states (MA ([38], PA [12], and NY [10] having the most), [7], and Russia [1]. Ten are deceased.

It should be noted about membership in the QCC: these are statistics and results of “Finishers.” While all the individuals are “official numbered runners,” about 1 in 5 have qualified for every one of their Bostons according to the BAA published qualification standards. These will be identified at some future time when those statistics are complete. Most have, at one time or another, been granted exceptions, waivers, or other BAA-authorized inclusion into the race.

17 Historical analysis of the Boston Marathon and the By: Roger A. Urbancsik

The following analysis is divided into three sections, the first of which depicts the Official Times of the 1st, 10th, 100th, and 1,000th place finishers (overall and women) in the Boston Marathon since 1975. Note that with the exception of elite runners, chip times have been used as Official Times since 2006. And note that over the past 40 years, the 1st and 10th place OA finishers have improved by 1-2 minutes, whereas the 100th and 1,000th place OA finishers have slowed by 6-7 minutes--despite advances in training, nutrition, equipment, and technology, easier qualifying times, and a huge increase in the number of runners.

The second section compares winning times (overall and women) of the Boston Marathon and Berlin Marathon since 1984. Prize money has been awarded at the Boston Marathon since 1986, and at the Berlin Marathon since 1992. Note that the Boston Marathon is ineligible for world record consideration due to its large start-finish separation as well as its 3.1 m/km average descent.

The third section includes charts of the Top Ten finishers (overall and women) of the Boston Marathon since 1975 and the Berlin Marathon since 1981. These charts were designed to assess whether the introduction of prize money influenced which nations sent their best marathoners. Each finisher's citizenship is noted, and the respective International Olympic Committee (IOC) Country Codes are color-coded by continent.

The impact of prize money is remarkable: From 1975-85, USA men garnered 63.6% (21/33) of the Top Three places, but over the past 32 years, they claimed only 4.2% (4/96) of the podium finishes. And, similarly, USA women claimed 66.7% (22/33) of the Top Three places from 1975-85, but reached the podiums only seven times (7.3%) since 1986. Moreover, these "sea change" charts show that the North American runners who previously dominated the Top Ten finishers at the Boston Marathon, as well as the European runners who previously prevailed in the Berlin Marathon, have been supplanted by African runners. ______

“Get going. Get up and walk if you have to, but finish the damned race.” - Ron Hill, winner of the 1970 Boston Marathon, to during that race.

“The event that certainly tries men’s soles.” - Jerry Nason, Boston sportswriter, about the 1945 Boston Marathon.

30 Traversing the Tundra – 60% Solution Revisited By: Steve DeBoer

Since I have received info from a couple more 50 year-old+ racers, I wanted to include their data in this article before going on to the main topic!

For those of you not familiar with the most famous fictitious detective, Sherlock Holmes, one of his most well-known quotations was, “The game is afoot!” which obviously refers to the necessity of being very physically fit to work as a private investigator, with running being the fastest form of foot power. Mr. Holmes was also noted for using a 7% solution (of cocaine), when he had no interesting cases going on and got bored playing his violin. As streak runners, we have less of a propensity for “Coke,” as things go better for us when we experience the 60% solution – that is the attempt to run daily for at least 60% of our lives. Among streak runners, it is more challenging than covering 100,000 miles (60 of our group has accomplished that).

Though Ted Corbitt and Bob Ray were the earliest US streak runners that have been certified, neither of them actually achieved 60% (Bob was at 55.9% when he retired his 38-year streak in 2005). Bob Hensley was the first to reach 60% in 1992. Mark Covert followed in 1995 and Steve DeBoer in 1996. For comparison, Ron Hill, who began his running streak December 1964, at age 26, did not reach 60% until 2005 (he was at 66.51% when his 52-years of daily runs ended in January 2017). Twelve years ago there were only 9 runners in this category in the US. Now there are 40 (though Chester T is removed from list as he has not verified whether his daily runs continue), with 8 more within 2% of that number. Bob Hensley was also the first to reach 70% in 2006, before his 3rd running streak ended. Now there are 8 that have been over 70%, including Joel Pearson, who began his streak before his 9th birthday.

Here is the list of those who have run at least 1 mile daily (along with their age and years of longest streak) for at least 60% of their life as of June 1, 2017:

Steve DeBoer 62 46 yrs. 73.57% (74.97% if include period he ran less than 1 mile some days) Jon Sutherland 66 48 yrs. 71.99% Steve Gathje 62 44 yrs. 71.98% Joel Pearson 31 22 yrs. 71.91% Dave Hamilton 62 43 yrs. 71.45% Nick Morganti (2 streaks) 60 35 yrs. 71.29% Mark Covert 66 45 yrs. 67.63% (dropping, 71.66% highest when he ended his streak) Alex Galbraith 66 45 yrs. 68.18% Brian Casey 58 40 yrs. 68.11% William Benton (2 streaks) 67 40 yrs. 67.63% John Roemer IV 57 38 yrs. 67.30% Gary Jones (2 streaks) 65 39 yrs. 67.09% (dropping, as currently not running daily) Steve Morrow (3 streaks) 53 28 yrs. 66.45% John Wallace III 41 27 yrs. 66.45% Ron Hill 77 52 yrs. 66.22% (dropping, as currently not running daily) Robert Kraft 66 42 yrs. 65.64% Timothy Woodbridge 58 39 yrs. 65.46% Layne Party 58 37 yrs. 64.99% Sue Favor 50 32 yrs. 64.88% Jim Pearson 73 47 yrs. 64.71% Grant McAllister 53 34 yrs. 64.54% Jay Kammerzell (5 streaks) 60 23 yrs. 64.40% Bill Robertson 64 40 yrs. 62.70%

32 John Carlson 63 39 yrs. 62.55% Bruce Sherman 62 39 yrs. 62.29% Richard Westbrook 70 43 yrs 61.73% Rick Porter 64 39 yrs. 61.70% Scott Ludwig 62 38 yrs. 61.63% John King (2 streaks) 66 31 yrs 61.32% Ken Young (3 streaks) 75 41 yrs. 61.31% Bob Hensley (4 streaks) 62 19 yrs. 61.29% (dropping, 70.51 highest when he ended his 3rd streak) George Hancock (2 streaks) 64 24 yrs. 61.03% Mark Courtney 61 37 yrs. 60.99% Bill Finkbeiner 61 37 yrs. 60.86% Craig Davidson 63 38 yrs. 60.79% Jim Behr 69 42 yrs. 60.62% Doug Holland 56 27 yrs 60.11%

Those getting close include: John Watts 61 36 yrs 59.55% Charles Groseth 59 35 yrs. 59.38% Dave Melissas 57 33 yrs. 59.19% C. David Todd 65 38 yrs 58.94% Tim Masters 66 39 yrs. 58.70% Fred Murolo 60 35 yrs. 58.69% Ken Birse 57 33 yrs. 58.69% (dropping, as currently not running daily) Julie Maxwell 66 33 yrs. 58.38% Bill Shires 52 30 yrs. 58.35% Don Slusser (4 streaks) 65 27 yrs. 57.98% (dropping, as currently not running daily)

With now over 1500 individuals documented running daily for one year or longer, it is still important to recognize we are not immune to at least a couple of things, taxes being one of them. Here is a list of those who have taken their running to a new level:

Allen Kayner * MI 11 Jan 1939 – 26 Sep 2001 age 62 Bill Monheit* CA 1909 – Jul 2002 age 92 Brian Maxwell* Canada/CA 14 Mar 1953 – 19 Mar 2004 age 51 Ted Corbitt NY 31 Jan 1919 – 12 Dec 2007 age 88 Charles Brumley MD, NY 21 Sep 1939 – 20 Feb 2010 age 70 Paul Driskill* CO 22 Jun 1937 – 24 Dec 2010 age 73 Joe Wojcik CA 27 Jan 1941 - 31 Jul 2012 age 71 Wendell DeBoer MN 16 Jun 1924 – 22 Apr 2014 age 89 James Scarborough CA 23 Mar 1934 – 25 Aug 2014 age 80 Len Burton MO, AR 12 Aug 1929 – 6 Nov 2015 age 86 Dominic Archibeque UT 2 Sep 1971 – 9 Aug 2016 age 44 *Streak not registered

*These individuals ran every day but never submitted their streaks for certification by the USRSA.

After 2007, I list the oldest streakers once they reached 1 year, except for those over age 80 (Wendell and Herb), who got listed when previous streaks ended, even though they had only reached about 9 months. To be consistent, Herb Fred could be listed 1/20/16-4/20/16, when his last streak ended.

PS If Lauren Thorson continues her daily running, she will reach 60% before her 13th birthday! ______

36 INTERVIEW WITH AUTHOR LAURA LEE HUTTENBACK

How did you meet Raven?

When I moved to Miami Beach, I would pass Raven running on the sand during my evening runs. He is a conspicuous fellow—shirtless and hairy with a mullet, wearing all black, looking a little like Forrest Gump—and I became curious about his story and why all these different people were running with him. One Sunday afternoon, I was soaking in sunshine on the beach when he happened to stop in front of my beach towel. We started talking, and he said, “I’ve probably been running since before you were born. When’s your birthday?” I told him August 1st, 1982, and he said, “Oh, that was a Sunday.” I was like, Whoa. He invited me to run with him. That Tuesday, I was waiting for him at the Fifth Street Lifeguard Stand.

Why did Raven start running?

The short answer to this question is that he became friends with two boxers named Bulldog and Killer, who were training at the Fifth Street Gym. For endurance training, Bulldog and Killer would run a few miles on the beach, and they invited Raven to join them. Raven felt like he was dying on the first run but when he finished two miles, endorphins were pumping through his body, and he felt great. He felt like he’d accomplished something, and he wanted more.

How has Miami Beach changed since he started the streak?

When Raven started the streak in 1975, Miami Beach was known as “God’s Waiting Room,” where old people were just sitting out on their porches, waiting to die. Or South Beach was known as a Kosher retirement community or a sleepy surfer town. Since then, Miami has been known for the Cocaine Cowboys, the Mariel Boatlift, Miami Vice, Gianni Versace, and now a home or vacation spot for people living glamorous, flashy lives. The city is an international mecca, and Raven has run through all iterations. He’s the one thing that hasn’t changed.

Who have you met through Raven?

Every eight miles is an opportunity to make a new friend or at least hear a great story. I met two of my best friends, Yellow Rose and Jurisprudence, through Raven. Once, when my car broke down, a Raven runner named Hitter, who is the Fire Chief of Miami- Dade County, recommended a mechanic. There is no better person to get a referral from than a Fire Chief, and I was taken care of very well. I also met a lifeguard called Teen Idol, who worked at 31st Street, two blocks from my apartment. Whenever I went swimming, I would check in with him, and he’d keep me safe. Raven’s girlfriend, Miracle, is one of the most intelligent and articulate people I have ever met. Through Raven, you meet all kinds of unique and wonderful individuals.

37 Take me through a typical eight-mile run with Raven.

Runners start gathering at the Fifth Street Lifeguard stand around 5:15 PM. We chat and stretch as we get ready for the run. At 5:30 PM, with Raven in the lead, we start jogging away from the water and stand toward the hard-packed sand. Immediately, Raven will launch into “Roll Call,” where, with the fanfare of a wrestling announcer, he will introduce every runner in attendance with their nickname and a little tagline or sometimes a song. For instance, with me, he always says, “She’s not moonshine, she’s White Lightning!”

And why are you called White Lightning?

Well, Raven says, “She’s fast, she’s white, and she’s from Georgia, where they make moonshine.” (White Lightning is another name for moonshine.) But another story is that, while I was walking to the Beach, two homeless men were standing on the corner of Fifth Street and Ocean Drive. One of them saw me coming and said, “Hello, Pink,” because I was wearing a pink dress. This got the other one’s attention, and he turned to look at me. Staring me up and down in one felt motion, the man announced, “Good afternoon, White Lightning.” You can get a lot of street commentary in Miami Beach, but this man’s delivery was hilarious and worthy of recognition by laughter.

That was the same day I met Raven, and the name stuck. I will admit that it can sometimes make for awkward interactions outside the beach context, like when Raven sends me letters (as mail is his preferred means of communication), he always addresses them to White Lightning, and I’m pretty sure my postman thinks I’m a drug dealer.

Does everyone get a nickname?

When you finish your first eight miles, you get a nickname, and Raven adds your name to his master list of runners, which now numbers over 2,500 people. On the first run, Raven will do a little informal interview. He’ll ask about your hobbies, your passions, obsessions, where you’re from, dietary habits, past nicknames—any little thing can inspire a nickname. Personally, I love the tradition. Knowing that Raven will give a nickname, people are more likely to reveal themselves. And a nickname makes you feel a part of something.

What are some of your favorite stories?

Um, my favorite stories come out to be about 250 pages.

Describe the typical Raven Runner.

This question really is impossible, because there is no “typical” runner, and that’s one reason that makes the group so special. The youngest runner is six, and the oldest is over eighty. Runners come from every American state and 86 countries. I’ve met conservative Republicans and lifelong Socialists. I’ve met judges, convicts, homeless people, millionaires, doctors, and lifeguards. The thing that unites us is Raven, running, and often a desire to be true to ourselves.

38 What was about him that made you want to write a book?

Curiosity. Every eight miles with Raven gave me another glimpse into his life, but I always came away with more questions than answers. As a person who loves to travel, I was fascinated by this man who hasn’t left his hometown in over four decades. And how did a guy who looked so strange on the surface attract such varied and special individuals? What was the source of his magnetism? What is it about running that unites people and keeps us sane (or insane)? Today Raven has all kinds of back problems and injuries, yet he keeps the streak alive. I kept coming back to the question of: What does a person do when the thing he loves is both killing him and keeping him alive? Raven defies so many stereotypes of Miami Beach, and through him, I learned a history that nobody else could tell. For all these reasons, I just had to record this story of Raven, his community, and the transient city that I shared with him.

Laura Lee Huttenbach, a graduate of the University of Virginia, has been a serious athlete since her older brothers taught her how to slide tackle in soccer when she was four. In high school as a four-sport star, she was named Female Athlete of the Year for the state of Georgia. She moved to South Beach in 2011 after finishing her first book— The Boy Is Gone, the life story of a Kenyan independence leader whom she met while backpacking in Africa. During her evening runs in Miami Beach, she met Raven and became fascinated by his story. While running with Raven, she learned Miami Beach history and met characters of the past and present who were unlike any she’d ever known. Her website is www.llhuttenbach.com.

39 MEMBER UPDATES – SUMMER 2017 number 3 started on March 11, 2015 and is still going.

During this first full year I ran 2,364 miles and had 10 races: 1 10K, 2 12Ks, 1 half marathon, 1 25K, 1 30K, and 4 marathons. Since September 2010 I have run 10,046 miles and counting. I also earned my Idiots certificate by completing the Fellowship of the Idiots run. It just seemed the thing to do if you are going to run every day.

No idea how long I will continue, but it has been fun.

44 MEMBER UPDATES – SUMMER 2017 It wasn’t until 2015 that I started to really think about my running. I completed 2 half marathons in 2015. As the fall was coming to a close I read an article in Runner’s World about a Run Streak to get you through the holidays and back to when training would start again so I thought why not, I can run for 36 days (or whatever the streak time line was). Well I hit that goal and thought I can make it to 50 and then 100 and so on it has gone.

In 2016 I completed 3 half marathons and PR at one of my favorite one’s to do. As of today, April 6, 2016, I have a total of 500 RSDs. My total mileage as of today is 1,125.69 miles for the run streak.

I am planning to run in 3 half marathons again this year with hopes of adding a 4th to the mix and I am hoping to hit 1000 miles for the year. I am a bit off of the goal as of right now but there is time to make it up.

On a side note, my family thinks I am crazy to keep this going…I have said the only reason I would not run is if I am Amy Jensen in the hospital and can’t move or my legs are broken. Let’s hope neither of AMY JENSEN those happen anytime soon!

I started running many years ago in the early 90s when I was in college. My Dad was in his prime mid 30s and racing a lot. I was a young college student and said, “Hey, I can do that Dad.” I thought I was going to die after running a mile with my Dad.

In 2010, I trained for my first half marathon in Ft. Worth. I have been running consistently since then.

I heard of streak running and thought I would enjoy that challenge. Now I have to run every day.

I’m not super fast but I honestly enjoy running. My boys think Mom is crazy but they can see how I really enjoy running. I hope to do this for many, many more John Mayan years.

After graduating college and starting working in the real world, the opportunity arose in my company to participate in a Corporate Challenge in Boston that consisted of 3.5 miles.

My running streak is still in tact and I can't believe I'm already at the two year mark. Time sure has flown by.

Over the last year I have challenged myself to run more but also to run smarter. I've run a little over 2,700 miles in the last 12 months which includes 12 races, from 5Ks to a full marathon. For the first time in my running life, I finished in first place in a race (a 10 miler) and I went on to accomplish the same feat three more times (two 10Ks and a 5K). I've also set new PRs at every level.

A couple of other major milestones for me was getting my marathon time down from 3:43 to a 3:22 this year as well as Michael Myers finishing 4th in the Swamp House half marathon (with a PR of 1:27:48), 3rd MICHAEL MYERS overall in the St. Augustine half JOINS USRSA marathon, and finishing first overall over a four race event called the Spring Grand Prix held by Final Mile. When I was younger I did track and cross-country. Running was just a way I've also started running before work, to stay in shape for my main thing, pole heading out most days by 3:15 am, vault. Anything longer than the vault instead of after work in an attempt to runway was too long. As I got older I keep out of the dangerous heat of the stopped running to pursue drinking.

THE FINISH LINE By: Mark Washburne

What is a streak runner? Most members of our association would say it someone who runs every day. There is, however, more than one kind of streak runner. I am reminded of that fact after reading the article, “UNBROKEN: Ben Beach Reaches the Half-Century Mark in Boston” by John Hanc that was published in the 121st Boston Marathon – Official Program. This April, Bennett “Ben” Beach, 68, from Bethesda, Maryland, became the first athlete to complete 50 consecutive Boston Marathons. Mr. Beach has the top spot in the Quarter Century Club (QCC), a group that recognizes athletes who have run at least 25 consecutive Boston Marathons. As noted in our cover story of this issue of TSR, the founder of QCC was Ronald Kmiec, 74, a Concert Pianist from Carlisle, Massachusetts.

Besides being a Boston Marathon streak runner, Ronald Kmiec is a daily streak runner and part of our running streak association. In the early days of our association, Mr. Kmiec wrote one of the most dramatic articles for this newsletter called, “11,687 Days: A Streak Comes to an End,” that detailed the end of his running streak due to a heart attack and surgery. Started on 28 November 1975, Mr. Kmiec’s streak lasted until 26 November 2007 – one day short of completing 32 years. In November 2007, Mr. Kmiec had the 14th longest active running streak in the United States that would soon be listed as the second longest retired streak. Today, that same streak by Mr. Kmiec ranks on our retired list as 25th in the United States.

Ronald Kmiec, however, did not give up daily running after his heart attack. The next month, on 28 December 2007, he started another running streak that continues to this day. He also never stopped his Boston Marathon running streak. This April, Mr. Kmiec completed his 44th consecutive Boston Marathon and now ranks 4th on the QCC list. After reading the article that he had founded QCC, I reached out to Mr. Kmiec for his own story on the topic. I am grateful that he agreed to the writing assignment (see page 7). I am also grateful to the Race Director of the Boston Marathon, Dave McGillivray, who ranks 3rd on the QCC list, for also sending a note on the club and the QCC founder Ronald Kmiec (see page 9).

While I am a long way from joining QCC, I did finish my lucky 13th consecutive Boston Marathon in April. Does that make me eligible to join the Eighth of a Century Club? In his kindness, Mr. Kmiec encouraged me to run another dozen Bostons so I could join QCC. At 61, I told him I thought it was unlikely I had that many more years of running 26.2 miles in me. I did say, however, that I had already qualified for the (and even booked my hotel room) so I hope to be back for #14 next year. After 2018, I plan to take it one year at a time for how long I can last running the historic course from the start line at the Town of Hopkinton to the finish line on in the City of Boston.

My other big news this quarter is that I reached 10,000 consecutive streak days on May 17th. My 10K running day began at 5:30a.m. with a 3 mile run with my favorite streak running (and everything else) partner Diane - her running streak, started on 21 March 2013, reached 1,519 days on that day. My 10K running day ended with a 6:30p.m. race called The Mind Matters 5K in Madison, New Jersey, where I won my age group.

Good luck to all of you as we each run the roads and trails – every day!
