Hi Stella,

You forgot this one:

I was not only fortunate last November to have run the Athens Classic Marathon celebrating the 2500 year anniversary of the first marathon, but I also can say that I ran it with Stefaan Engels –the man who ran 365 consecutive marathons in a row. A Belgian colleague and running buddy of mine from work knows the marathon man and ran 15 of the marathons with him, including the last five in Barcelona. For what it’s worth, he is the guy on the far right with the white rimmed sunglasses in the photo.

I can tell you some more amazing facts about the marathon man’s incredible story, but I’ll save it for another day.
