In 1973 Hap Miller quit smoking and put on 25 pounds in the aftermath. He also watched the first Harrisburg Marathon. Two years later, in 1975, he would run his first of 33 Harriburg Marathons and lose the 25 pounds as a result of his running. At age 65 and retired, Miller will again toe the line for his 34th Harrisburg Marathon this weekend.
