Anti aging tips for women

Here in Vancouver where I live we have just hosted a major triathlon event, and it was impressive not only to see pretty much equal participation by men and women but also how many not-young participants there were. It's becoming common knowledge that keeping fit is one of the better ways to fight off the signs of aging and retain youthful health.

To assist women who enjoy running, a new social networking website has been set up that addresses the needs and lifestyles of nearly 6 million women who have a passion for running (http://www.traxee.com/), has just launched in beta by Tuesday Creative, an interactive agency based in Los Angeles.

"Traxee provides a unique social networking community for women who live an active lifestyle," Moore continues. "For women, being physically strong, feeling capable and getting what we want out of our lives is interwoven with our sense of who we are as human beings. Being a successful athlete, regardless of whether you are training for a marathon, a 10K, or just working up to your first mile, is all about goal setting and achievement. Traxee community members support each other, provide invaluable training advice and share their experiences both on and off 'the track'."

According to American Sports Data (ASD) women's running (http://www.traxee.com/) has experienced a surge over the last 5 years and female runners now comprise nearly 50% of the running population in the United States. Nearly 6 million women are frequent runners, logging 100 or more days of running per year.

"When we created Traxee," Running adds, "we realized there are lots of sports-related media out there for women. However, much of this media focuses on fashion, weight loss and other superfluous issues -- we wanted to create a place for the women who are serious about their running and recognize that fitness is a lifestyle. We look forward to growing Traxee.com based on the needs and desires of the community. Women runners are now a powerful force in athletics all across the world. It's an awesome privilege to be able to provide a space for women at all skill levels of the sport to share their experiences and support each other."

Founded in January, 2008, the Traxee mission is to provide a social networking community where women can come together, inspire and support each other in all stages of the sport, from running for fitness, to training, to competition. Traxee's distinctly female perspective on the athletic lifestyle reflects the essential balance between strength of body and strength of spirit. Through a fun, supportive environment of likeminded women, comprehensive content, expert advice, the latest product information & reviews and innovative interactive tools, Traxee community members can set, track, achieve and celebrate their goals "on the track" and in life.
