[00:00:31] My name is Joshua Barto. I’m 31 years old.
[00:00:37] I have worked with foot- levelers, coming up on eight years. I currently work in the modifications department. So I’ve always run since I was a little kid. I ran cross-country in school. Do races around Roanoke because I was born here. I’ve just always enjoyed it. I’ve always stayed fit and played a lot of sports. What’s special to me about the foot levelers Blue Ridge Marathon is the fact that it’ll be my first official half marathon. I have run one before. Never on paper or actually competing. I actually had a couple of friends run it the last two years which they’ve kind of inspired me to do so. As far as how I’m training for the full levelers Blue Ridge marathon, I started by, I’m a 5k 10k racer, so I just started increasing the amount of miles that I run. Foot levelers obviously help with this gym that they allow us to use, especially on our breaks after work. We have a great workout for the payout program that I obviously take advantage of. You know, it’s great that it’s provided to us. I’m also a big trail fan, so I stick to the trails that are local around here. And it’s nice that we have access to the Greenway, which is also so close to our company. And, you know, it’s nice that he’s provided us with the treadmills when it’s on a rainy day. As far as the dumbbells and exercise and everything that we have. So I do my weight training here and my running. I start here sometimes as well.
