My husband ’ s 77 year old

grandmother is participating in the Cantrell

Center 5K!! I never thought those words

would ever come out of my mouth!! She

has always encouraged me when I would

talk about the different 5Ks, 10Ks, half

marathons, and even a marathon that I

would participate in, but I never would

have thought, in a

million years, that Nanny would even consider a 5K!!!

She and my mother-in-law, Shirley, began walking on a daily

basis about 4 months ago. Shirley would tell me about their

walks in the park and how Nanny would want to increase their

distance, speed… even adding some hills!

Nanny was just tired of not feeling well. She wanted to make a

change. This has now turned into an almost daily routine for

them. So one day I mentioned that they should consider

walking in the Cantrell Center 5K…and without hesitation, she

said YES!!!

My kids ( each having participated in the Cantrell Center 5K in

the past ) want to participate again this coming year with

Nanny! Can you say ‘ super proud momma ’ ?!! Nanny says

she may even run a little. And you better believe, probably with

tears in my eyes, I will be cheering her on every step of the

way!! Go Nanny!!

5K Success Story

"On February 22nd, 2014, I ran my

first 5K ever with the Cantrell Center.

Before this race I've always been afraid

to participate in public activities

involving fitness. In my mind I felt as if

my efforts would be a joke to

everyone. Due to my weight, I thought

n o b o d y w o u l d t a k e m e

serious. During the Cantrell Run to

Lose the employees made me feel

welcome and excited. I felt as if I

belonged regardless of my appearance.

Since the Run to lose with the Cantrell Center, my mindset has

changed. I've lost 60lbs and come completely off blood pressure

medication. I eat healthier than I ever have in my life. I feel more alive

than ever. Thanks so much Cantrell Center Warner Robins for

embracing me and encouraging me in my fight against obesity!!!!
