Inspiration...


So I was reading posts that came up on my reader and found one that I thought I should share that tells me I am a youngster with respect to running. Rosario Iglesias has recently passed away at the age of 98. That alone is quite an achievement, but she defied the odds and at age 80 took up running. Not only did she begin running, but started setting records as well. This all started when she took up a paper delivery route covering 6 to 7 miles a day and someone suggested she try a race.

I would have probably thought they were nuts. I only hope that I am half that agile when I get to be that age. This makes getting up in the morning to go running seem like a non-decision.
