The loneliness of the long-distance runner
I was doing an easy 17K jog, yesterday. Around 22:00 hrs, I passed Stefaan Engels' mobilhome in Ghent. That was unusual, as Stefaan normally does his daily marathon in the morning. The chrono was at 5:29 and he wasn't quite home yet ... As it turns out, Stefaan was suffering from a foot injury (he doesn't make too much of it himself) and had to walk more than two thirds of his marathon. I have tremendous respect for Stefaan, and I sincerely hope he achieves his 365 marathons goal . I hope his injury gets heals real soon too. Send him some positive thoughts: www.marathonman365.be
19th consecutive marathon for Stefaan, despite a foot injury.
