Twenty-six miles is too much to ask of a 98-year-old. Long ago, he determined that eight-and-a-half miles was his outer limit, but for the ninth time, Ben Skardon completes his personal march a half hour faster than the year before.

Ben Skardon: It's just a warm, terrific feeling…

Sharyn Alfonsi: Do you think you'll do it again?

Ben Skardon: If I'm in this condition, I'll be here next year…I can't turn this place loose.

Ben Skardon did it again two months ago at age 99. He turns 100 on July 14th and hopes to march in New Mexico next spring.
