My mother remains fit and healthy as she ages.
And she's getting faster.

She ran a 22:36 in a women-only 5k race today (about 7:18 minutes per mile).
Took third place overall.

The race had mainly a mixture of fitness buffs rather than dedicated runners.
Nonetheless, at nearly 66 years old, she was proud to represent "pre-Title IX" women.
