Donations pour in for Detroit man who walks 21 miles for his daily commute

The 56-year-old Detroit man walks 21 miles every weekday as part of his journey to and from the factory where he works.

Robertson takes the bus some of the way, according to the Detroit Free Press, which brought Robertson’s herculean daily hike to public attention over the weekend.

But for the past decade, ever since his car broke down, he has trudged the better part of a marathon each workday. Rain, snow or shine.

That could be about to change.

“I sleep a lot on the weekend, yes I do,” he told the Detroit Free Press, which said he also snoozes during the bus rides in his commute.

It’s all to make sure he has the strength to get to the factory and back.

“I can’t imagine not working,” Robertson said.
