I said I want to run the New York City Marathon, said Farley. 'The only way to do it, I need to quit smoking, and that goal kept me going. I put a big piece of paper on my fridge - that's it, I quit.'
I'm motivated. I want to finish that race, I want to cross that line, I want to show my kids that it's never too late to start doing something for myself.
Last year, Farley did show them, as she ran the RBC Brooklyn Half Marathon for the first time, telling News 12 she'll never forget how there 'was 26,000 people running the race and I was there.'
When she crosses the finish line, Farley says she hopes it will be 'a reminder that everybody can do it. And I see my kids, my husband.'
