(Key West, FL) -- A man who just finished jogging from Alaska to Florida calls the nearly 54-hundred-mile run the adventure of a lifetime.
Thirty-one-year-old Pete Kostelnick began his journey on July 31st at Anchor Point on Alaska's Kenai Peninsula, the westernmost point of the North American highway system. He finished it yesterday as he arrived at the marker in Key West that designates the southernmost point in the continental United States.
Kostelnick is apparently the first person to complete a self-supported run, without relying on an accompanying support vehicle, from Alaska to Florida.
