it's her genes. in her book "getting better" she has a photo of her running the marathon back in the 80s. this is a similar photo but only shows her thighs (remember short athletic shorts?):

Thumbs up

Thanks for posting the article link. I hadn't heard anything from Kathy lately, so it was nice to check in with her again.

Thanks for this. I listened to the podcast that she mentioned where she interviewed Dr. B. He's enjoyable to listen to.

Thanks for the link!

We just finished watching American Horror Story: 1984. The title credits open with a clip from an old Kathy Smith exercise video. Two of the main characters start out as 80's aerobic instructors. The whole show is quite the flashback with the clothing, hairstyles and music. If you like 80's horror (and aerobics) nostalgia, give it a try.

If you don't like scares and gore, give it a miss.
