From Christine Luff, your Guide to Running & Jogging
There were plenty of celebrity runners at the New York City marathon last weekend, but the one who grabbed the most headlines was Edison Peña, one of the rescued Chilean miners. Incredibly, he had run six miles a day while trapped underground for 69 days. Even though he had to walk most of the second half and spent time in a medical tent icing his knees, Peña completed the marathon in 5:40:51. If hearing his story has motivated you to start running or train for a big race, check out these links to get started.
