It’s not a widely known fact, but the first effort to run 50 marathons in 50 states in 50 days was a low-key effort, done on the cheap.

Great Story. Thank You. Too bad his quest didn't receive a lot more press coverage early on. And, too bad I didn't know he was coming to Phoenix… I would have advised running at night and provided an escort vehicle.
