but I just came across this paean to Mark Covert on Slowtwitch today. You think Cal Ripken or Pete Rose were bad? You a Morten Anderson afficionado? Or maybe even Stefaan Engels?
Slowtwitch reports that Mark Covert has run daily from 1968 until approximately one week ago. His average daily mileage in that 45-year period? 9. A good hard workout for me represents this guy's norm for a longer period than I've been alive.
I can only think of one reaction.
Note that he apparently ran through a broken foot and knee surgery.
ReplyDeleteI decided not to ride my bike last week because I'd forgotten to bring my jersey, so would have had to make do wearing a cotton t-shirt. Don't I feel inadequate now...
Surely this qualifies as a psychological condition.
