In episode #2 of the Team Growing Bolder Track Shack podcast, Track Shack co-owner Betsy Hughes discusses taking those critical first steps toward a better, happier and healthier life. She explains the life-changing and possibly life-saving benefits of walking and why if you don’t want to run, you can still reap enormous health, mental and spiritual benefits by committing to a regular walking program. She offers tips for getting started and, most importantly, sticking with it.

Plus, we chat with Willie Murphy, a 77-year-old grandmother who is living proof that it’s never too late to try something new. Weighing in at just 105 pounds, she can deadlift 215 pounds, and with every pounds she lifts, she is raising hopes for women nationwide. Willie just started lifting a few years ago, and she’s now one of the top powerlifters in the world in her age group. Find out how starting to run at the age of 50 opened up a whole new world of health and happiness to her.
