Talk about it

I am a Boy Scout of Worthington. I am a Life Scout. For one of my merit badges (Communications), I have to write a letter to the editor stating one of the articles and then explaining it.

The article was about a man who takes a run in Minneapolis, and it takes him on all the streets. He graduated in Lake Park, Iowa, and has the record for the two-mile run. He went to junior college at the University of Minnesota. He gave up running until now. He was a 50-year-old that is a funeral director in the Twin Cities. His name is Al Blau.

I really think that it was really interesting that an older man can do this.
