      We had the opportunity to watch as Bill chalked up a “Done it” at the Milwaukee Lakefront Marathon. An awesome achievement in my eyes since I couldn’t run around the block without making a 911 call. Kudos, Bill we are all proud of your achievement.

      I always thought running was for sick people-
      First Enigma and now this!

      Congratulations Mr. Folktraker!

      Congratulations on running and completing the marathon. You’re quite a clever cachemeister/geocacher as well.

      Nice job! I’m a “retired” marathon runner. Have completed 2 in my younger years and have no desire to do them again. Way to go the distance! Tami

      Way to go, Bill! This is truly a noteworthy accomplishment. How many caches did you find along the way?

      By the way, I believe a geocacher won the men’s division of the marathon. We met Shane Carr while geocaching last year at T&B’s “Diamond in the Rough” cache. He was there with wzbt03, who (I think) is Shane’s father-in-law. Do I have my facts correct, Jeff?

      A big thank you to T & tb who took time out of their Sunday to come down to the lakefront to cheer me on. I can’t begin to thank them enough…it means a lot to me that you guys did that.

      I had great support from Mrs. Traker in this goal. It took a year’s worth of training and many hours of lost cache time to achieve this goal but in the end it was worth it.

      I completed it in 4 hours 45 min and 55 sec…and did not try to find a cache along the way…but kept thinking about it as I went past some very familiar parks!!

      Thanks again everyone!!

      That’s a tough one to chalk up a find!
      Way to go!!!
