The Road to Fitville 9.12: me, an athlete?
[That's Fit blogger Larissa Brown chronicles her journey to health and fitness through this regular weekly feature.

If I haven't made it abundantly clear through this series of posts, I did not grow up athletic. Far from it. This person also had me pegged as a holier-than-thou vegan. They were so totally wrong, unless you consider an athlete someone who can jog for up to 10 minutes at a time, and a vegan someone who devours cream-filled desserts every day and who still mourns the closing of the hot dog stands at Home Depot.
I'm incredibly proud of the fit and healthy lifestyle I'm building for myself, and the profusion of walks, bike rides, jogs, races, and hikes I've taken this summer. And every week my husband and I make a game of trying to eat everything that comes in our organic produce delivery box. But I still eat my share of ice cream, and when it comes down to exercise I have - until today - considered myself only slightly more active than average.
