Boston Marathon 2014
Orthopedic Surgeon and Marathon runner Darryl Tannenbaum, advises his patients to stay healthy by staying active. And he walks the talk, or more accurately, he runs the talk.
This Harvard Medical School graduate relocated to the Midwest 20 years ago to practice Orthopedics in Indiana, the state where “the largest hip and knee implant companies in the world are headquartered” to practice medicine.
Darryl will be running his second Boston Marathon, which has a lot of personal meaning. He began running just 5 years ago in his mid forties. “After the bombing last year I wanted to run in a place I called home for nearly 10 years to show my support of the Boston victims and their families. I am not alone. I’m thrilled I got a coveted spot in this race.”
The Boston Marathon is described as the world’s oldest annual marathon. According to the Boston Marathon website, 2014 will be record breaking attendance. Dr. Tannenbaum hopes to beat his personal best, which is under 4 hours, 3:48.
“Darryl has new friends, many who just like him, discovered running after 40. These runners are located all over the United States and he communicates with them regularly because of their mutual interest (passion) for running. He is the guy to go to with running related medical issues”, says his wife Suzanne of 22 years.
