Two weeks ago she ran a 1:51.15 half marathon, first in her age group (50-55) and top 10% of females. She was disappointed in her performance(?)!

This morning she did a quarter mile of lunges carrying a 100lb. sandbag followed by 4 sets of 50 back squats with the sandbag on her shoulders. She weighs 135lbs. It was a leg day at the gym! She's tough enough!

A pure fierce mother who has seen both the happiest and most painful parts of loving children.

Puts up with me most of the time. True redhead that fights like hell for what she believes in and does not suffer fools. Sometimes has a potty mouth and has put up with me and my bad habits for decades....

Color me happy!

Happy is what matters...may her efforts pay off.

you two are made of way stronger stuff than most. i truly admire you and keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

That is an incredible fitness level. I work out regularly and doubt I could pull of those lunges with the weight she carried, let alone a proportionate weight for my 190 lbs. My hat is off to her, and to you for being able to keep up, knowing quite a bit about red heads since I am one also.
