No doubt about it - once you're into your 40s and beyond, exercise is no longer enough to keep the weight off. As RC has conclusively proven, even marathon runners struggle to keep the weight off beyond a certain age.

And yes (no?), a life of complete abstinence is not life. There's no point being able to run xx kilometres at x:xx pace if your down time consists of eating tofu salads and drinking thrice-distilled water.

Sorry to say that there's no easy answer. You have to decide what you want to be - trim, taut and tofu-stuffed, or a beer-drinking, pie-loving runner who has a bit of girth?

Oh God, that sounds so sanctimonious. Shit, sorry.
Run. Just run.
