The various states I have run marathons in so far. (Image: world66.com.)
Within my lifetime I would like to have run marathons in all 50 states in the U.S. So far I have done 13. Just 37 more to go! I figure, if I can continue doing a new state each year, I will have accomplished this by age 70…

My brother has basically the same goal and he sacrificed running Chicago for Indianapolis, even though he lives in Evanston (he’s done Chicago several times already). In sharp contrast to Chicago, Indianapolis had something like ~600 marathon finishers.
