I forgot when I first joined this group that I never introduced myself. Hello everybody. I’m fairly new to Running. I only started my first formal race July 4, 2024. I’m an older Runner I started when I was 54 separated and then eventually divorced. My friends dragged me out of the house and force me to exercise and work out and eventually running. Since then, I’ve been a local Running store Brandon ambassador inspiring other older runners to get off the couch. I also work with a few brands like Shokz, Swift Running, BibBoards, Feetures and Garmin. Still working on my first marathon, which was supposed to be New York, but then the Charity pulled all the bibs. It might be Disney marathon weekend in January. We shall see. I’m also a professional base player so I get to travel a lot

I’m new here. Just signed up for my first marathon. Yay! New Orleans in November. So excited!! I’m becoming the stereotypical new runner, where it’s all I think about, can talk about it for hours, read about it, listen to podcasts, it’s all consuming and I’m loving every minute of it. So that’s how I ended up here. 😁
