What happens when a 71-year-old discovers a passion for running? Join us on Over the Next Hill Fitness Podcast as we welcome Toni Johnston, a spirited runner who embraced the world of running later in life. From her early days as an Air Force brat with no athletic background to participating in her first 5K in 2007, Toni's journey is a testament to the power of determination and joy in the running community. Discover how she overcame personal challenges like surgeries and endometriosis-induced weight gain, and how a 5K with her grandchild sparked a love for running that continues to this day.

Running isn't just about the physical act; it's a community and a lifestyle. Toni shares her experiences with the Old Ladies Running Facebook group, where she has found camaraderie and strength despite age and physical challenges. Whether it's the race day excitement or planning "runcations" with friends, Toni emphasizes that running is an inclusive activity that welcomes everyone, regardless of their starting point. We explore the humor and challenges of running in varying weather conditions and how each runner develops unique preferences for their outdoor adventures.

As we round off this heartwarming episode, we delve into essential tips for nutrition and injury prevention that Toni has gleaned from years of experience. Whether you're a seasoned runner or just starting, Toni's insights on hydration, fueling, and setting personal goals offer valuable guidance for any fitness journey. Celebrate the joy of running and the supportive nature of the community, and be inspired to lace up your shoes and embark on your own path to health and happiness.
