About The Ancient Runner

After a career in the Forest Industry and finally seeing my daughters off to college I found myself with way too much time on my hands. I found myself constantly tired and unmotivated with what seemed like not enough time in a day to get the things done I wanted yet I had more than I ever had! Poor nutrition and the lack of exercise was the culprit and I made a conscious decision to get back into some form of activity and learn to eat healthier.

When I was much younger I loved the sport of running and thought at the grand old age of 58 that I would take up that endeavor again. Boy, was I surprised! Like the old saying goes, "I wish I had known then what I know now" is so true because I made a lot of mistakes that held back any improvements I would have made for year or so. Once I figured it all out and began training properly I immediately saw results. I am here to share with everyone how train and keep my body healthy and injury free. Thanks for taking a moment to read my bio.
