More marathon inspires women to be better

Today at the More/ Fitness marathon Event expo held in New York City, the buzz is alive and active! Dr Pam Peeke, Dr. Vonda Wright and myself attended to the event along with some 5,000+ women. Tomorrow they all descend upon New York's Central Park with another 4,000+. The even closed in March when the capacity of 9,000 women signed up for either the half or full marathon. Setting goals and reaching them is what this event is all about. Women inspiring women. Friends challenging friends to get healthier. Moms and their daughters spending training hours and the ultimate finish together of a marathon. It is amazing what women can do!
