Marathon Training & Racing from
Joe Bowman
All 50 States & DC under 3:00
Jerry Rief recently contacted me and said, hey Joe I've got 31 sub3 states myself.  His goal is to
do his 50th state on his 50th birthday.  Good idea...so let's watch his progress...he's 42 now.
Jerry Rief's Best 50 States & DC - 33 states to date; 32 sub 3:00s ...  and Jerry has a nice
average as well ...
