Somewhere along the road I met a fellow Kevin runner. Kevin Brosi is the founder and president of the Marathon Globetrotters<\/a> running club.<\/p>\n

We’ve chatted here and there, first at a Mainly Marathon series and then, gosh, I’ve lost track of where we last met up. But he asked me why I hadn’t joined the group yet. And the reason was as mundane as it gets — it was a lot of “digital paperwork” to sign up as one needed to provide online links to results for verification purposes. It’s not a difficult task, just tedious to track down the links and get them posted. And unfortunately the initial signup required putting in five races in one go… and the last time I tried doing it I got interrupted or distracted and there was no “save your place” option. Discouraged at having to re enter the information I had sourced a second time, I just kept putting it off.<\/p>\n

I’ve updated RunKevinRun’s membership<\/a> page accordingly.\u00a0 And I’ve input my other races at MarathonGlobetrotters.org since they sent me my certificate so we’ll see what my country tally is here in short order.<\/p>\n

By my count with Madagascar it will be 20 countries that I’ve run a marathon in.\u00a0 In which I’ve run a marathon?\u00a0 I should rewrite that sentence because it’s not grammatically correct — dangling participles, ending with a preposition and all that.<\/p>\n
