Marlene Hadley with Harmon’s has truly crossed the finish line since working with The Apple Program®. She said at first she didn’t take The Apple Program seriously, but after seeing her biometrics, she knew she needed to do something about her health. She decided to start running and with the help and support of her Apple Health Coach® who was a collegiate runner, she hit the track. Marlene said she started out only able to run 1/4 of the track, but with her determination to run every night after work she now competes in 5Ks and has been in the top of her age group for every race.
With her new found passion for running, Marlene has seen big payoffs in her health. Since January, her body fat percentage has dropped seven percent, she has lost three inches of her waist circumference and her cholesterol has dropped significantly.
“They say that you are just a jogger until you sign up for your first race and then you are a runner. I am a runner now! At 56 years old I decided that if I didn't control my health it would control me. I started running and have run many 5Ks coming in either first or second! My goal is to run a race every month and prepare for a half marathon next year. I wouldn’t have been motivated to do this on my own – Thanks Apple!”
