He traveled across the US on a motor cycle, worked on a race car pit crew, hiked the Blue Trails of Connecticut, climbed Mt Monadnock every year for over 20 years in a row and completed every marathon he started. His one regret was not qualifying for the Boston Marathon. An automobile accident was a motivating factor in getting Mario into running. His first race and last run were both in his hometown of Cromwell. Over the many years there were two running groups he connected with. With the Roxbury Road Races he would drive every Saturday morning to Roxbury. It was there he ran his very first Marathon. He ran every Roxbury Marathon unti his cancer came back as he was training for the 2012 marathon. Mario became the 99th member of the Run 169 Towns Society and was on a quest to run as many towns as possible. His quiet times were filled with Suduko and Scrabble Mario honed his wit by submitting entries to the Caption Contests of several national newspapers. He won several Hartford Courant Caption Contests. Mario was a gentle man with a wit, a sense of family, and personal integrity. He will be missed but his spirit will be remembered.
