Bo Marchionte of Niles, Ohio is a ultra marathoner who began a streak of running at least 3 miles, every day since early 1998. That’s 25 years. Half his life. More than 9,000 days straight. No breaks. Nothing has stopped him. And, even after a celebration for him on Jan 7, 2023, he will keep on running. Yours truly is also an ultra marathoner and thus, we had a great conversation, but only after we got a run in at one of the gems of our country, the Cuyahoga Valley National Park.

Vince Guerrieri pens a hilarious book about the insane happenings in Cleveland Sports history. We have had basketball players shoot at the wrong basket, MORE THAN ONCE. Players climb through ceilings to steal corked bats, and have seen home runs happen as a result of the hardness of an outfielders noggin. Vince captures a lot of the stories . It was a fun interview and the book is a quick, and chuckle inducing account of the wacky nature of sports in our town.
