Smartrunner2, 64

48 yrs old, 5'6, 110 pounds, size 0-2, hard bodied marathon runner(ran 9). Short blonde hair & blue eyes. Live in Littleton. 2 children, 14 & 12. I'm a former Fortune 50er turned consultant.

I've been blessed (maybe cursed) with an abudance of energy (think Energizer Bunny). I'm very intelligent but have my have my brainless moments. I'm very fit -running (I keep saying no more marathons but.. maybe..), lifting (only weights in the gym -but unable to move furniture), tae bo, yoga (a frightening sight when a tight runner tries to turn into a pretzel), hiking, mountain biking (scratch that -I wimped out after a tough fall), road biking (not the fastest but I can go forever), just about anything outdoors.. I think I've given up on snowboarding after breaking my butt (literally) twice. But I'm not too proud to start again (I"m thinking Vail's bunny lift?). I love the mountains, ocean, outdoors.. A long distance bike trip down the Pacific Coast would be a perfect vacation (sans the bugs in the teeth and assuming not all of the lodging stops are flea bags).

Speaking of cooking, I'm very talented in the kitchen (think Tuna Helper), but I make a fine dinner guest (if you're cooking). I've traveled to many places - Europe, Asia, South America, all over North America.. but much of it was for work. The insides of hotels, cabs and office buildings looks pretty much the same regardless of the continent. But I still love to travel -- whether its a road trip through a dive town with a greasy spoon as the featured restaurant - or visiting temples in Asia. I come from a big family (8 kids) and have great family values (Moms always like me.

I love music outdoors, movies, theaters, libraries, museums, hanging out in a park, watching a storm, walking in the snow, hearing a good ol' belly laugh.

My Dad used to call me "Scout" as in the "Scout" in To Kill A Mockingbird -- cute little tomboy with a lot of spunk. However, this little tomboy cleans up well!
