I have never run a marathon, but I'm probably in 2:50 shape. Could I run my first marathon in 4 hours on purpose, so that each subsequent marathon can be 10 minutes faster, until I've exceeded 13 marathons faster than the previous, to break Dick's Guiness record? Just askin'!

This was when "Men Were Men" and women were proud of it !! Tough races and even tougher training were the orders of the day and even trying to hold down a fulltime job when sponsors were thin on the ground unless you had contacts . We doff our caps to Dick and his like , we who could only dream to aspire to their greatness you gave us all heros and the hope to follow in your footsteps but just a little slower !!!

Dick came to Grand Rapids to speak last year and I was in attendance. I was very impressed with him. He has been through a lot with a bad accident as I recall from his talk and then an addiction to pain meds and a long struggle to get over that problem. He truly is an inspiration and a great guy.
