Actress and television host Anne Curtis is no stranger when it comes to being a health buff. In fact, she is gearing up for a new physical challenge.
The “It’s Showtime” mainstay posted a selfie on Sunday, where she said she completed her morning run at 25 kilometers, her first in over a year. “Kept it steady and kept telling myself – just don’t walk,” Curtis joked on Twitter.
But her exercise was for another reason — she has set her eyes on joining the London Marathon. “Getting my mileage in for @londonmarathon,” she added in her post.

Curtis has previously trained for other marathons. She was set to participate in the premier marathon event, Boston Marathon, in February 2017; she cancelled due to conflicting schedules with her noontime show. She said she was “no longer able to run the marathon of her dreams.”
But she was able to run in the New York Marathon back in 2016.
This year’s London Marathon is slated for April 22. JB
