Why is Access Hollywood’s Nancy O’Dell a runner? She answered that question this week in a new interview in Runner’s World magazine.
“I started running when I came to L.A. in 1996 and began on Access Hollywood,” she explained to the mag. “I realized I had to stand next to all these actresses who are in terrific shape.”

Nancy’s workout regimen spans four or five days a week, when she runs about 4 miles in 35 minutes. “You know how when you’ve been running for 20 or 30 minutes, you get into a cadence? I just love that feeling,” she said. “The great thing about running is that even when I’m not at home, I can throw on my shoes and explore another city.”
But despite her devotion to fitness, she said she gets the most exercise from an unexpected source.

“I just interviewed Angelina Jolie, and I asked her how she was already in such great shape after having twins,” she said. “She said by running after her four other kids. I knew what she means – keeping up with my 21-month-old is like a 10-mile run!”
