I am 69 years young and have been involved in fitness all of my life. I was a dancer in my youth then became more fitness oriented as Jazzercise and Jane Fonda came into my life. I love working out. I have been and taught) in cycle classes, weight lifting classes and yoga. I also run and walk daily. I've completed 3 half marathons (first one at age 60) a 10 miler and too many 5k's and 10k's to count. Professionally I worked as an orthoptist for 40 years. I worked with Pediatric Ophthalmologists caring for children's eyes. I did diagnosis and treatment of children's eye issues and also worked with adults suffering from double vision from various disorders. I assisted in minor and major surgical procedures. I have 2 grown , married children and 3 beautiful grandchildren. All boys! I have to stay strong, limber and healthy to keep up with them. Unfortunately, I lost my husband 4 years ago to Covid, but I have managed to create a new life for myself filled with family and friends.
