0:00.0	So almost 31 years ago, shortly after my wife and I were married, we moved into the Cloverland Apartments in Murray, Utah.
0:07.0	And I remember the big debate was, were we willing to pay more than $300 a month in rent?
0:13.2	We had found a few apartments and other areas of Salt Lake for, I don't know, I remember it was around $250 or $260 a month.
0:18.9	But these were in a slightly nicer area than we anticipated. And I believe that
0:23.9	we found a middle floor of this three-story apartment complex, and we signed up $310 a month.
0:29.9	And I wasn't quite the ultramarathon runner that I eventually became, but I did get out running
0:34.5	on a fairly regular basis. And there was a bank near our apartment.

1:13.1	And it was years and even decades later when I heard stories like this one.
1:17.3	And these stories are out there.
1:19.2	This one is from runnersworld.com.
1:21.2	It's titled When Running Pays Off.
1:23.6	Craig Davidson, 64, Phoenix recently passed two unusual milestones.
1:27.3	The first is an epic run streak, 40 consecutive years of daily running, which he hit on
1:32.1	November 4th.
1:32.9	And during that streak, he covered 207,412 miles, more than double that of some cars.
