Fitness Statement | First of all, I've never been a runner. In my 20's / 30's / 40s, I loved to hike. "Running" was definitely a taboo word. As I grew older and work hours extended into the late PM, I migrated into what I call "the couch zombie". Not too long ago (April 2012), I could hardly walk around the block without getting out of breath. Being in my 50's, out of shape and over weight I decided to do something about my declining physical state. I joined Weight Watchers and started walking. As of today, I have lost more than 80 pounds. What is more amazing than my weight lose is my ability to run. I've never been able to run a 5k. In fact walking any distance (recently) was difficult. Thanks to a trail running group (Brazen Racing), my husband and I starting "racing". We ran (we didn't walk a step) our first 10k on Thanksgiving Day. Two days later, we ran our second 10k. We are both slower than molasses, but we are excited about running and are eager to run our first 15k at the Double in Pleasanton. I will never be in the top 3 or an age group winner, never the less I am hooked! I run everyday with my husband (rain or shine), except for the day before a race. I have a lot to learn, but thanks to clubs like yours, I'm getting done! |
