I became committed to running at age 40. I'm 56 now and running is still a large part of my life. Exercise helps improve my mood, gives me time to just focus on myself, has helped my self esteem as I've improved and taken on longer distances, has given me some sense of community among other runners.

My first computer was a TI-99/4. In 1980, I have no idea where my parents got the $$ for it. I'm 56 years old now and have supported myself and my family by programming for nearly 25 years.
