I am with Steve. I have always wanted to run a marathon. Since I can no longer run due to knees and back degeneration I still plan to walk one. I have a patient that walks marathons in 6 hours. So I am gonna walk one someday. I will be in Pittsburgh the weekend of this WWW marathon. Maybe some of us can start planning and training for next years. That would be awesome to have a large contingency of the Mt. Whitney Hikers Association.
