MB-100

Post by rfranks »

Congratulations to Jacob Wells for finishing your 100th marathon at Little Rock this past weekend. It was very cool that you hit the century mark on the same course of your first marathon, back in May of 2003. I'm not an accountant, but I think that averages out to a marathon-a-month, over the past 8 years.

And I would like to thank you for all the times that you stayed at the finish line to cheer on some of us slower runners. It always puts a smile on my face to see you at the finish & on the course.

So Congrats Jacob, you are truly a maniac.

Congrats on the century mark! It was good to meet you when you stopped by the pacer booth on Friday.

Keep it going!

:D Thank you, one and all! :D

It has been my joy to share it with all of you every stop along the way, from hundreds of you every year in Little Rock to just the Stallion and me at Booneville and everywhere in between.

And how about Rick Franks who started this thread about to complete the 50 State Marathons by the end of 2011! :clap:
