Wise resident Michael Abbott, 67, poses beside some of the finisher’s medals he’s earned from running 68 marathons in 23 years. Abbott finished his 68th event in February at the Myrtle Beach Marathon. He hopes to run one marathon for every year he’s been alive for as long as he can continue to do so.
