From holding a world record at the Ionman Worldchampionships in 1985 and 1987 to.....garbage lady!!!! And at 64 she can still bang out a sub 4:30 marathon, and she's wearing Newtons to boot!
Click on the link and look for Video/Audio "Boca runner cleans streets". That's my mom!

Wow!! That is very cool.  You have one very hot mom!  I won't ask to be running a 4:30 marathon when I get to her age since I could barely do that when I was in my 30s.  Some things do not improve with age. I'll be happy if I can still walk marathons, and do triathlons when I reach her age.

Congratulations!

I LOVE your mom! She could almost be my mom...she picks up trash, walks almost daily and has tons of vitality. She just turned 65 this year and is coming out to colorado next week to go hiking in Rocky Mountain National Park to earn another patch!

Our Mom's would probably get along great!

I wish your mom would come and run in my neighborhood. I can't believe the trash that people will just toss out of their car windows. If I tried to pick it up on my runs, I'm certain I'd fall all over myself.

Ahhh...I love mommies!  She is so cute and sweet.  You are blessed.  Hearing about her spinal cord recovery back in the day and to know what a great athlete she remains to be is also super inspirational.  Thanks for sharing!
