About Me
I am 68 years old. I retired in June 2010 from 40 years of teaching French and German in the middle and high school.
As a French teacher, I followed the Tour de France as far back as Greg LeMond and used it in my teaching. When Lance was winning, I followed it much closer. I was in France in 2004 when he won his 6th win. I have also supported the LAF since then, because my beloved sister-in-law, Kathy, died of ovarian cancer while I was in France. I continue to give to Livestrong.org in her name and for the sake of my children who have inherited the "cancer" genes. I hope that there will be new ways of treating cancer before they might have to deal with it.
Livestrong.com has helped me start living a healthier life by exercising regularly and changing my eating habits for the first time in many, many years. Since December 2010, I have lost 37 lbs! I'm going for another 10-15 and then I need to learn how to maintain it. I want to be in better shape when I reach 70 and to NEVER GO BACK!!
