And speaking of running...

Fred Lebow (June 3, 1932 – October 9, 1994), who was born Fischel Lebowitz, was an avid runner and founder of the New York City Marathon. Born in Romania he presided over the transformation of the race from one with 55 finishers in 1970 to one of the largest marathons in the world with over 43,660 finishers in 2009. He was posthumously inducted into the National Distance Running Hall of Fame in 2001.
