I was tickled pink but i knew better - the tan from too much golf and the muscles from genetics and some gym time. This somehow ignites my on and off romance with running. I once promised myself that my goal is to run and finish my first full marathon by age 50. I am turning 51 in May and it still is my dream. I would like to join a group that could encourage me to run regularly and perhaps if i may be more flexible and move it to age 55 i may finally realize my full marathon dream!

I am a 50 year old woman who recently retired from the government service. It has been my dream to be able to run for health. I was inspired by the feature of Jessica Soho in Channel 7 about people who run to improve their health. Can you help find me a group? Or could you please tell me where and how to start? Thank you and more power!!! Hi. I am a 50 year old woman who recently retired from the government service. It has been my dream to be able to run for health.

I am a bit on the heavy side but I still held my head up when I am being acknowledged as an athlete. Thanks for the article..
