Rick Worley was the reason for starting the Texas Marathon in 2000. He was working on setting a Guinness World Record for the most marathons on consecutive weekends when he ran 200 in 159 consecutive weeks. The race has been held on New Year’s Day every year since.
In this blogpost I researched and compiled Texas marathon results for the year 2016-2023 in such a way that is easily displayed.
