Gary McKee, 53, ran a marathon every day of the year in 2022. That's about 9,600 miles.

The team name, Thrashers, suggests they don't know the first thing about a steady stroke in the water. On the contrary, the lead Thrasher, Brian Crane, makes his way nicely through the chilly waters of Lake Tahoe.

Better, we should warn each other about these scams?
