CLEVELAND — At 60 years old one runner set the goal to run 1,000 races and this Sunday at the Rock and Hall of fame half marathon he got one race closer.“There's a feeling you get that you won't know about unless you are a runner. There's just one feeling a lot of people call it a runner's high,” said Robb.
Bill has been running since 1979, he said he fell in love with the sport back in high school when he would run with a friend during the summer to stay in shape for football workouts. And he hasn't slowed down ever since. Even in his 60’s, he still takes on half marathons and full ones too. He set the goal to run 1,000 races a few years back when he realized he wasn’t too far off. Though Covid slowed his count, the 1,000 is less than a few races away.
Oct. 29 is also Bill’s 61st birthday, but for Bill, reaching those 4 digits isn’t just a personal achievement. It is also a dedication to his dad, who passed in February.
