Short Fat Chick to Marathon Runner - Kerre Woodham (2008)Kerre is one of those women who have drifted in and out of television screens here in New Zealand for the past fifteen years, sent on Intrepid Journeys, destined to dance with the stars and too clever to go on Celebrity treasure Island (I hope).
At 41 she is approached by a Salmon company, saying they will sponser her to do the Auckland Marathon. So with 9 months to train, she starts running with the help of her trainer Gaz. After completing the Auckland run, she then sets her sights on the New York marathon.
Amusing and short, I liked that she was not a runner going into this, didn't get all pompous and smarmy because she had run two marathons and still she managed to fit in the training and running with her busy schedule. Certainly if you are planning a new years resolution about trying something new, this is a good start - 3/5. Me, I won't be running anywhere.
