I love racing and that really shows here because my smile is famous in my running like in this photo...one of my running friends recently sent this to me and I love it!

My running began when I was 34 and had a waist line of 34" and was told that middle age spread was inevitable. But I knew that the formula really was calories in, calories out..you had to burn up what you consumed. The fact is that our metabolism rate stays the same between exercise periods with running and weight lifting. I have tapped into that and will stay with it for the rest of my life.
This photo was taken by the official photographer at the Universal Studios Backlot 10K Run, Nov. 14 , 1998, in Hollywood, California, where I placed first in men 55-59 and got my pic taken with a Betty Boop Stand-in because the real one was stuck in the 60`s!
I have sent this photo out to all of my snail mail pen pals and by e-mail to quite a few chat room buddies. Unlike most runners, I do believe in working out with weights!
