Meet the 98-year-old Alabamian who’s staying fit! |
It’s 13 degrees outside, but the 98-year-old in the cheery red swimsuit started working out before sunrise. Regardless of the weather, Regina Dembo faithfully completes seven laps at the Huntsville Hospital Wellness Center pool five days a week. Dembo taught fourth grade at Weatherly Elementary School for 23 years. Even then, she woke up early for a walk around the block. “I don’t come Saturday and Sunday,” said Dembo, wearing a bright blue swim cap and goggles, dripping after a 35-minute session in the water. “First of all, I don’t have my driver and second of all, I think five is enough!” Read more about Dembo’s story here. |
