Emory Duick, the 71-year-old man who is attempting to jog from Chicago to Santa Monica in an effort to get more of his fellow senior citizens to become physically active, has made it to Victorville, Calif., according to the Victorville Daily Press.
He’s less than 120 miles from his final destination. Duick hopes to make it to the Santa Monica Pier by New Year’s Eve.
What an accomplishment. Mr. Duick walk/runs the talk. I hope he makes his goal and has a great new year.
Great job EMORY!!!! From your friends in DesPlaines. See you Jan. 5th or 6th.
