Ex-Bruins captain Zdeno Chara was one of the most feared players to ever stop on the ice during his 24-year NHL career.
Turns out the 46-year-old former defenseman is also turning into an elite distance runner.
Since announcing his retirement from hockey in September 2022, Chara has not spent much time putting his feet up and relaxing. Rather, he’s traded in his skates for sneakers and has turned his attention to marathons.
On Sunday, the future Hall of Famer completed the New York City Marathon with a time of just 3:19:19 — marking the fifth marathon that Chara has finished since April.
