MY INTRO -
My running life began after the birth of my 4th child. Suddenly I realized managing a household of 6 would require me to be physically fit. Um, "physically fit..." yes, that's a word used during the 1960's PE Classes most of which I managed to skip in lieu of running errands. I'm not sure what is used today. "In shape," maybe or just "strong?" I began in 1983 and after 2 miles couldn't run a step more. Then I learned, add the extra mile and the endorphins would kick in. I did and have been running ever since. Only now, my running daughters tease me stating, "Really, Mom, you walk. That is not running!" I call myself doing a relaxed version of "the military shuffle." And, thankfully due to now having been a runner for a few years, I respond, "I can still run when need be. Just watch out!"
Actually, my three year old granddaughter out runs me these days.
Hang around! See ya soon!
