Who knew Howard Stern’s quick witted side kick was also quick on her feet! 58 year-old Robin Quivers ran the 26.2 mile New York City Marathon this past weekend, which completed her remarkable 3 year return to good health.
The shock jockey’s longtime radio co-host says that she could barely walk a couple of city blocks a few years ago, but after losing 80 pounds and becoming a vegan she admits:
├óΓé¼┼ôChanging my body has given me the ability to do all these amazing things that I never in a million years imagined I could do.”
Much like most of her spontaneous and carefree comments that have helped shape Howard Sterns radio program, she says of the marathon:
├óΓé¼┼ôIt was something that was never on my radar. Then I thought, why not just do it? Why not just throw my body out there and try and see what I can do?”
Although she admits to struggling on the second half of the race, she optimistically added, “Now know what I need to do to get my body in better shape and keep it up for the next one.”
We love to see celebrities taking the steps for a healthier, happier life. Great job, Robin! You’re an inspiration to us all!
