I started training to run 5K initially for health reason (to lower my cholesterol) at age 50, but after running my first 5K, I got exposed to the the different charity groups that are using 5Ks, Half Marathon and Marathon to raise funds. What better way to get healthy and at the same time support the charity/Cause groups. I never run for fun but for a cause. I run in support to Fight Against Child Trafficking, CHOC, American Cancer Society...call it win-win...I get healthy and other people who are struggling gets funded ecause I ran.
