He worked as a chemical engineer and made several valuable inventions, but his health declined. He started running again using the techniques of Arthur Lydiard, and at the age of 49, he ran four miles faster than he had in college. His physical problems disappeared, and he raced successfully for another fifteen years, finishing 22 marathons and winning many distance races. He is now a track coach, a substitute teacher, and a writer.view less
