I joined FIT in 2000 and have been connected ever since.  My husband Torrance bought me my first pair of running shoes to help me keep the 100 lbs off that I gained when I quit smoking!!!!  There is no way, that I could have imagined running 5 miles; let alone 26.2!!!! Thanks to God & FIT, I have completed 6 full marathons and 8 half marathons.  There are running groups that are closer to my home, but nothing compares to the beautiful sunrise I get to experience every time I run with the group on A1A; it is simply priceless and is worth all of the extra miles that I have to drive.
