Fit & Trim Valerie Bertinelli Finishes Half-Marathon

You’ve seen her lose over 50 pounds and wear a bikini on the cover of People magazine, now Valerie Bertinelli has kicked it up a notch. She just completed a half-marathon! The actress completed the Napa-to-Sonoma Wine Country Half-Marathon on Sunday finishing in 2:12:19. Way to go Valerie!
After the race, the Jenny Craig spokesperson said,
“My legs are killing me, but I think I’m so high and excited and full of pride – which is an unusual thing for me! – that I probably won’t feel it for a couple days. I am in amazement. I can’t believe what a body can do if you believe in it.”
People reports that the 49 year old has been training hard in the months leading up to the race, increasing her running, sit-ups and upper body work-outs. While she and Vitale did a low-impact work-out the night before, including a mile and a half jog, their favorite pre-race activity involved a guilt-free food splurge: panzanella bread, cheese and tomato salad for lunch and beets salad and lemon cottage cheese pancakes with creme fraiche for dinner.
