I am a cartoonist and a runner. Ten years ago I started running and competing in races. I’m not young or an athlete…and I’m definitely not fast! I figured that there were others, like me, who, aren’t exactly fitness divas, but love to run. This is why I created the Wimpy Girl cartoon. A Running Sense of Humor is the first story in the Wimpy Girl series.

Share on FacebookI ran my first 5k when I was around 8 and it was fun. But I can tell you first hand they are HELL I've been running them ever since
Wow! You are my hero! I agree. 5k is my limit. It astounds me the people that are in their 50s and 60s and run marathons and ultras. I figure they must have Gumby legs or something! Thanks for reading my stuff and commenting! And, keep running!

Hi Dorothy! Yep, I lost the weight plus 15 more! I'm 64 now and still doing 15-20 miles a week. Sometimes I run (not fast), sometimes I walk-run, sometimes I run-walk, sometimes I just walk. I was a chubby kid and plump many years as an adult, so I've always been "weight conscious." I know, I know, it shouldn't matter, but it does. I'm brand new to BP. I really appreciate your comment and reading my stuff. Thanks!
