Andre Exume, 74, was profiled in The Daily News about his New York City Marathon training:

Retired civil engineer Andre Exume, 74, has been running 10 miles every morning to get in shape – after finishing last year’s 26-mile run in six hours, 45 minutes.

“I was very unhappy with my performance. I was feeling under the weather. I can do much better,” said Exume, who came to the U.S. from Haiti in 1965.

This Nov. 1, he’s aiming to outdo his personal best of four hours, 18 minutes – which he set in 1993 at the tender age of 58.
