Mark Covert's Last Run

On a run back in June, Raven informed me that Mark Covert, the man who has maintained the longest running streak in the U.S. to date, was going to end his streak on July 23rd after 45 years, 16,436 days, and 149,652 streak miles.

Being the streak running groupie that I am, I decided to make the trek out to Lancaster, California to document Mark's last run. In doing so, I also had the opportunity to chat with the second longest streak runner, Jon Sutherland. Is it just me, or does this make anyone else giddy?

It's streak running gold out in California.

Here's a link to the Official U.S.A. Active Running Streak List
