New York City Marathon Running Legend Featured in New Video on mybergen.com

Sept. 16, 2011 - PRLog -- In the New York Metro area, fall means marathon season. Many thousands of runners in New York City and the surrounding areas kick their training into high-gear as the weather cools and the leaves start to change. As the days grow shorter, the runs grow longer for this crowd!

There is a remarkably fit and youthful looking marathon man in Edgewater, New Jersey who has experienced this seasonal long distance training ritual for many decades. His name is Joe Burns.

Burns started his running career in the 1940s in New York City and has never considered retiring. Still a fierce competitor and award winner in his age group, Joe Burns has become a running legend in the New York City Metro area. He's also become a bit of a sage, with a wealth of training and racing experience and advice that few coaches or running magazines could ever hope to capture.

Bergen County's website http://www.mybergen.com recently produced this video that tells a bit of the amazing Joe Burns running story.
In this video, Burns shares some of his running experiences, advice and philosophy. Both new runners and longtime participants in the sport will benefit from watching this wonderful video.
